Magnificent views from one of Denmark’s “mountains”
Sukkertoppen: Forget about Denmark being flat as a pancake. One of Denmark's mountains is found in The Coastal Land with steep heathered sides and the trip to the top being one of Denmark’s more challenging climbs. The hike is about 4 km and the views of Mossø and the river Gudenå are fantastic. If you list a top-10 of overlooked Danish natural gems, there is no getting around Sukkertoppen.
Such a handsome lighthouse, it should have its own Instagram account
Træskohage Lighthouse from 1904 is an iconic landmark of the area around Stouby and Vejlefjord. The 13-metretall lighthouse has recently been restored and, today, is an excellent observation tower with fantastic views of the fjord. On a clear day you can actually see all the way to Funen! It is also a popular motif for nature photographers and Instagram enthusiasts.
Unique cultural landscape by the river Gudenå
The marshland Uldum Kær is a protected nature reserve with a rare flora and fauna. A welldesigned network of trails lets you experience the large bog and marsh area up close. Start at the bird tower and soak up the views.
