Prince Henrik will not participate in any royal hunts. His advanced age, shoulder problems, and other health concerns are preventing him from being able to keep up with the activity required during the hunts, according to this article:
Prins Henrik opgiver jagt - Royale - BT.dk

The prince also has gout, back pain, and an arm problem that keeps him from being able to properly handle the rifle.

Oh how awful, he sounds like he has real trouble. Is he being treated for what he has?

The article didn't mention treatment, but I would be very surprised if he wasn't receiving some sort of treatment. I have read in previous articles that he does work with a physical trainer.

I wonder if Prince Henrik has a "morphine treatment" to support his various health problems that should be a reason he looks a bit fat ?

sgl · #**246** 09-07-2009, 07:40 PM

Not sure about his weight, but here is an article that says Prince Henrik is still participating in hunts (just in a slightly different way):
Worldâ€™s first royal GPS hunt

He hid the first royal geocache near his house in France. GPS hunting has become very popular throughout the world, and Prince Henrik is the first royal to participate in GPS hunting. His participation has been confirmed.

Here's a photo and an article about the Queen's visit to the Danish Jockey Club:
sn.dk - Sjællands Nyheder - Danmark

The article says that the honorary prize went to Swedish rider Annika Sjokvist. It also says that women jockeys have been more prevalent due to a shortage of male jockeys. And that the women who have been riding have done so well that they have done better than men in this traditionally male-dominated sport.

It is great to see Prince Henrik again. I feel like it has been awhile since we have last seen him. He looks healthy and happy in the photos. Thanks for the link, Iceflower!

Are these liquor stores somehow related to his winery?

Yes they are from his Chateau de Cayx place.
The article also says he will be travelling to China for 14 days. They also suggesting to call the wine "The French Viking's Cellar".

Prince Henrik will visit Russia on October 13. He will present first official Russian translation of cookbook - "Prince Henrik's recipes: Danish Royal cuisine" ("Рецепты принца Хенрика. Королевская кухня Дании").
The presentation will take place in the book house "Moscow" (дом книги "Москва").

I hope the Prince will enjoy his visit.

This article from Svensk Damtidning discusses a 'secret' visit Henrik made on October 6th to Malmö for the 70th anniversary celebration of Alliance Francaise at the Malmö Town Hall. Henrik apparently took the podium at the event and read several poems in his mother tongue, French. The magazine reports that Henrik mingled with the guests, and even spoke with the SD reporter (there is a picture of them together).
