Destination
SE Jutland
South-eastern Jutland is a scenic area, which offers plenty of good holiday experiences for the whole family.
The south-eastern stretch of coast is a true Eldorado for both children and adults. All kinds of beach and water-sport activities are practised here. The many sandy beaches are very child-friendly because of the shallow and calm water. Behind the coast the landscape is characterized by woods, preserved plantation landscapes, lakes and streams. The 'mountain' Himmelbjerget by the lakes of Silkeborg provides you with Denmark's highest view. Here you can enjoy the beautiful nature from a canoe or from one of the many boats that sail in the area. Skamlingsbanken by Binderup is a scenic nature area, and with its 113 metres above sea level also the highest point in south eastern Jutland. Als is absolutely worth visiting too.

The mill Dybbol Molle (originating from 1744) was previously located in the middle of a military area and today, it is converted into a museum with pictures and memories from the battlefield. The stones Jellingestenene with their runic inscriptions originate from the viking age and are called 'Denmark's birth certificate'.
