The East Jutland Archipelago Vejle FjordA charming little holiday destination in the heart of Denmark. Here, you're always standing on the edge to the next wonderful experience, and you just have to choose whether to go right or left. - and we are happy to guide you.
Helle Berthold Rosenberg Head of Tourism
We live in a hilly landscape, where high peaks and deep valleys lead to calm, shallow beaches, teal forest lakes, wide fjords, and wind-swept small islands, shaped by the creeping glaciers of the ice age and the determined people who have lived here since.
Things don't move too fast here, but that's exactly what allows you to lower your shoulders right away. Good ingredients take time to grow, and the quality of the yield is more important than the quantity. On our islands in the East Jutland Archipelago, the tides work as a natural clock. Here, you should just gaze at the stars and rabbits and have a good time. Or how about a leisurely stroll in one of our harbor towns, with a fresh breeze in your hair, the scent of freshly smoked fish in the air, and the hypnotic sound of 'clink' from the yacht masts?
That's slow travel – and we are world champions at it. (If we do say so ourselves!)
Besides the coast, there is, of course, the land. Venture out on the gentle stream of the river Gudenåen, or hop on your bike and listen to the crunch of the gravel path under the wheels. Stop by one of the many farm shops or roadside stalls and fill your basket with local goods to enjoy later in the tent, summerhouse, or caravan – slow food at its best.
If you've come to fill up on cultural impressions and gastronomic experiences, just head towards the larger cities in Kystlandet. They offer arts and crafts, entrepreneurial spirit, really good food, shopping, music and communities, green oases, and a rich cultural life. Always in their own way, but with the same unpretentious East Jutland hospitality ready to welcome you.
The coast is clear - and you set the course.

Wild rabbits, hiking routes and viking stories. So many surprises awaits you on the islands off the coast of East Jutland. Visit them one by one or go island hopping from one to the other.
In 2017 a dedicated group of volunteers managed to save Træskohage Lighthouse from demolition. The now beautifully restored lighthouse is one of the area’s most cherished and distinctive landmarks.
Kystlandet has more than 266 km of coastline … from Norsminde in the North to Vejle Fjord in the South and around the islands of the East Jutland Archipelago.
There are 167.715 inhabitants in Kystlandet
We love playfulness
… therefore, we have four treasure hunts that you can use to explore the area – for free!
See page 20.
Several of Denmark’s tallest “mountains” are located in Kystlandet, which means great opportunities for exploring gorgeous views.
See page 56.
…was anchored in Juelsminde from 1912 til 1925, and one of its anchors still stands on the town’s marina.
Every year, Horsens hosts the largest medieval festival in Northern Europe. This impressive weekend in August is the closest you will come to travelling back in time.

Kystlandet offers plenty of experiences that are partly or fully accessible for wheelchair users, walking-impaired people and people with physical disabilities. We do our best to guide you to attractions, nature experiences and accommodation, where your specific needs are considered in the experience, and we continually strive to improve.
You're probably familiar with it if you have a physical disability. You want to visit a natural resort or an attraction, but you're unsure if you can access it with your specific needs. Whether you want to experience nature, culture, or just find a comfortable place to stay, there are many great options here in Kystlandet.
When you seek experiences where you get to feel the fresh air on your face and listen to birdsong up above, we can e.g. recommend a trip to The Uncovered Bridge. From the parking lot, an asphalted path leads all the way to the bridge, allowing you to access the bridge and enjoy the view over the Gudenå River. But it's also possible to go on a canoe trip, try archery, or take a ride on a zip line with the skilled people from Outdoor Connection.
The instructors are experienced, and safety is a high priority. If a trip to the beach sounds better to you, Saksild Beach offers access to the water via beach mats, and at Storstranden (The Great Beach) in Juelsminde, you can borrow a beach wheelchair for free.
For those interested in culture, there are also exciting experiences awaiting. Many of the museums in Kystlandet now have wide doors, ramps, elevators, and facilities that make it convenient for most people to visit. However, not all old museums are fully accessible, so please check for more information on our website before your visit.
Finally, we are fortunate to have Denmark's most accessible swimming center, Vandhalla, located in Hou. Here, you'll find, among other things, the only water slide
in the country accessible to people with disabilities, as well as wheelchair access to all pools.
When searching for the right accommodation, Hou Søsportcenter (sea sport centre) is a good choice. Here, 11 holiday homes are specially designed for accessibility and located in the front row to the Jutlandic east coast. The spacious houses are the perfect base for a coastal vacation along Odderkysten for everyone – regardless of needs.
Most other hotels in Horsens, Odder, and Hotel Vejlefjord, including the spa facilities, are designed with accessibility and the best possible experience in mind. So, there are plenty of reasons to come and enjoy a stay here in Kystlandet.
We are still in the process of improving our information on accessibility in Kystlandet. If you have any inputs please contact us at info@kystlandet.com
We know this all too well. On the following pages we will guide you through tour suggestions, fun activities and experience s which you can explore together, and which ensure a wonderful trip for all.

Calm and shallow waters, plenty of space, and restaurants and facilities nearby make Kystlandet the ideal choice for a beach holiday with children. With 266 kilometres of varied coastline, there are plenty of beaches to choose from. Here, you get our recommendations for the best of the best.
Saksild Beach, Odder
If you ask the locals, Saksild Beach is the go-to destination in the summer. Clear bathing water, soft sandy ocean floor and accessible coastline as far as the eye can see. All this is complemented by good toilet facilities, lifeguard towers, eateries and the opportunity to rent kayaks, paddleboards and to buy beach gear a few metres from the beach.
Storstranden, Juelsminde
Wide, calm and very family-friendly sandy beach which is centrally located near the buzzing life of Juelsminde - Denmark's perhaps most beautiful harbour town. Here, you get really good ice cream, a cosy marina and a beach with good facilities, a 62 metres long bathing jetty and plenty of room. Summertime Juelsminde is extremely charming.
Husodde Beach, Horsens
A few kilometres from the centre of Horsens, you find Husodde Strand. A family-friendly, sandy beach with a bathing jetty, a playground, public toilets, and the opportunity to play miniature golf or buy ice cream at the neighbouring Horsens City Camping. The beach is located in a beautiful area with a view of Horsens Fjord.
Hou Beach, Odder
This beach is one of the few beaches in Denmark that is truly wheelchair-accessible. A wheelchair slide leading to a wide bathing jetty means that everyone can get right to the water's edge on a hot summer’s day! The fact that the beach also has a nice sandy ocean floor, beautiful views of Tunø and Samsø, and is located a few hundred metres from the harbour town of Hou ‒ well, that is just a huge bonus.
Juelsminde
Husodde Beach
Hou Beach
The nature in Kystlandet may be beautiful, but it is not just purely for decoration. It is one big playground waiting for curious visitors. In addition to climbing hills and exploring forests, you can meet cute farm animals, play on large tractors or pet an alpaca, to mention but a few.
In Juelsminde Naturlegepark (nature playpark) you can climb into the 8-metres high play tower, go down the ski slide all year round, or tilt and swing as much as you please. This playpark has something for children of all ages!
Are your children fans of fuzzy and furry animals? Then go to Myllerup Østergård, where you can go on a walk with a bunch of cute alpacas. Or on a ponying horse to the river Gudenå with Fuglsang Horseback Riding. You can also combine a visit to the rabbit island Endelave with a guided tour with Endelave horseback riding tours - a very special island experience that the whole family will love!
Visit Glud Museum - an open-air working museum with historic buildings and outdoor activities. Or let the family loose in the new activity park in Brædstrup, where you can challenge yourself on the obstacle
course, feel the rush on the zip wire or simply relax on the sensory swing. And don't forget to go look for the troll who lives in the forest right around the corner.
At Børnebondegården (the children's farm) and Kæledyrsgården (the pet farm), you’ll find real farm ambience at a children’s level. Let the youngsters say hello to guinea pigs, goats, mini pigs, donkeys and many more. They can even assist on feeding time at Kæledyrsgården and burn off some energy on the many play tractors at Børnebondegården. Remember to bring a lunch basket!
Are the friendly trolls peeping out between the trees? And can you also hear the witch's hoarse laughter? We all love a good tale, and in Eventyrskoven (the fairytale forest), you are part of one. Watch the magic appear before you as you scan the QR codes along the way.
Crab fishing at the harbour is a huge hit amongst the little ones and, in several places, they have made something of it with e.g., a racetrack, a collection pool and life jackets. In Kystlandet, you are always near a harbour.

Horsens City Camping
Juelsminde Minigolf
For the competitive and playful we recommend a classic game of miniature golf!
These are the best (mini)courses in Kystlandet.
Horsens City Camping
Golfing in the dark ages - well, why not? This popular miniature golf course has both fjord, beach, and the city of Horsens as its closest neighbors, and it is creatively built as a medieval-themed adventure. In the centre, you'll find a knight’s castle, and if you are not careful, you might end up in the witch’s boiling pot or in the pillory. Celebrate the winner of the match with a delicious ice-cream from the superb ice-cream bar.
Juelsminde Minigolf
Not far from the centre of Juelsminde you’ll find this beautiful oasis for games. The course lies in a green, park-like environment, surrounded by trees and shrubs. Here, there is the sound of birds chirping, the golf club hitting the ball and happy people creating a unique atmosphere. The 18-hole course is suited for both beginners and the more experienced.
Minigolfbanen Saxild
Right next some of the most family-friendly beaches in Kystlandet you'll find Denmark's oldest miniature golf course. With attention to detail, the cosy environment sets the mood for the whole family to compete on the charming and original lanes from 1947.
At the camp site First Camp Ajstrup Strand at Ajstrup Beach you can combine a day at the beach with a game of miniature golf. Vamos a la playa!
Strandshoppen at Saksild Beach
Compete with your family at the adventure miniature golf course just 100 metres from the beach Saksild Strand. An obvious activity for the beach trip if you want it to be just a little more fun. With 12 holes of varying difficulty levels, this is the perfect family battle.
Kuglen & Keglen
At the combined activity centre and bowling alley Kuglen & Keglen in Odder, you can be a true ’club-slinger’ at the Wild West themed course with 9 easy holes and 9 more challenging. Your children can even do a ’Kids Round’, or the whole family can hit the grand 18-hole course.
Stalden - Tunø Minigolf
When visiting Tunø, it is obvious to visit this mini golf course at the yellow-limed farm, Stalden. From the course, you have a view of fields and the sea while playing a round on the old but nicely designed course, which offers challenges for both beginners and more experienced miniature golf players.
The museum is open Tuesday-Sunday from 11 a.m. - 4 p.m.
Admission: 30 DKK (free for children under 18)
Wednesday:
Toddlers, kids, or playful adults? In Kystlandet you’ll find a lot of fantastic playgrounds to enjoy with the whole family. Here are some of the best playgrounds in the area.
At the Industrial Museum in Horsens
Inspired by the long industrial history of Horsens, this modern playground invites you to play in beautifully designed playground equipment. The big play tower is shaped as a gas tank – right here on the ground that once housed a gas factory. The tower is big enough to be explored from the inside, and from the top, at an altitude of seven metres, you can ride the long slide down. You’ll also find a steam engine, a seesaw shaped as the local Nimbus motorcycle as well as swings and an obstacle course.
At The Prison Museum in Horsens
In the green areas outside of the old prison’s walls, children can play in a miniature edition of The Prison called “The Great Escape”. With hidden escape systems, jungle net, climbing wall and a swing set, this place has plenty of challenges for small adventurers. Combine your stay at the playground with a walk around the prison’s grounds, and maybe grab yourself a treat at the café Brasseriet FÆNGSLET.
With a view over the small coastal town
In the scenic settings around Odelsbjerget near Juelsminde town centre, you’ll find a paradise for children and childish grownups. A plethora of playground equipment, facilities, tracks and challenges awaits. The varied activities mean that the children can play for hours while you relax, perhaps with a cup of coffee from the kiosk or a game of padel tennis at the playpark’s courts.
A brand new playground has opened in Folkeparken (the public park) in Odder. The playground pays tribute to the local area's cultural history where agriculture and fishery played an important role. You can e.g. climb up the big mill and whiz down the cool slide. From the mill you can also transport flour (sand) to the local bakery or maybe you prefer working at the fishmonger? You can also relax in a hammock or jump on the balancing equipment.

Yes, we do know that it happens. The showers in Denmark are the very reason that everything is so lovely and green. Luckily, we also have experiences here that are indifferent to weather conditions.
The weather is always perfect for swimming in the public pools Vandhalla in Hou and Aqua Forum in Horsens which both have water slides and hot water pools.
At the activity centre Kuglen & Keglen in Odder, you can immerse yourself in an array of friendly family competition on the bowling alley, the pool table or the air hockey table, and if the weather clears up, there is fun to be had outside as well on the big inflatable playground. In Odder you will also find one of the country's cosiest cinemas.
Unfold your inner game master at the board game café (Brætspilscaféen) in Horsens. Here you can choose from almost 500 games - everything from yatzy to shuffleboard. Another perfect getaway on a rainy day in Horsens is Kulturstationen (the culture station), which offers new activities and creative pursuits every weekend and Art by Me where the whole family can be creative with ceramics painting.
At Horsens Municipality's Libraries, you can surf books, newspapers, and web, in all kinds of weather. Keep an eye on the calendar on kystlandet.com, because especially during holidays, the library is filled with creative workshops, activities and talks for children and adults.
There is hours of fun, games, and full speed ahead when you visit the play centers. For the youngest members of the family, Hermans Hule is the perfect choice. There is room for them to safely burn off energy in the ball pool, on the big foam tractor and in the playhouse but also for a quieter playtime.
If you kids love climbing, trampolines, slides, ball cannons and treasure hunts, Horsens Legeland is a pure Eldorado of colours and fun play areas.

Would you like to put your life into perspective?
Visit The Prison (“Fængslet”) and experience the illuminating history and events that played out here.
As soon as you get behind the thick prison walls, you are enthralled with the stories and adventures of this special place. With an award-winning museum, concerts, festivals and the opportunity for accommodation in old prison cells, The Prison has so much to offer.
Enter an unknown world, now full of life, history and authentic personal tales.
The museum has won several awards for its exciting exhibitions, which give you a different and thoughtprovoking experience. Here you get an extraordinary opportunity to get behind bars and meet former
inmates as shadows on the walls or follow an employee through the museum via interactive ID-cards or follow in the footsteps of the great escape artist Carl Lorentzen through an 18-meter-long tunnel. But don’t worry. The Prison will not lock you up. Contrary to Lorentzen, you are free to leave again.
The activity "The Hidden Stamp" has in record time become a big favorite among the youngest guests! As a newly arrived prisoner, you and your family will be handed a notebook from a previous prisoner with several tasks that you must solve in order to gain access to the hidden stamp that gets you out into freedom. With the help of Morse code, pattern
recognition and much more, you must find a way out for yourself through the museum - and thus escape a life in prison.
Vestsalen (the west wing) is the crowning achievement of The Prison's transformation.
In 2021, Vestsalen openeda new spectacular culture, event and conference hall, which opens up for experiences in a league of its own. The unique architecture merges with raw prison aesthetics and creates an extraordinary setting. With Vestsalen, The Prison's vision of opening up a previously closed world has come full circle.
The Prison is not just an award winning museum! Did you know that there are conferences and events inside and outside of the building almost every week?
This year, some of the biggest events include; Horsens Medieval Festival, International Convention for Crime Fiction, Beers Behind Bars, Prison Ink tattoo convention, JAILBREAK metal festival, as well as Habengut Second Hand Market, Halloween, and Christmas at The Prison. Find them and more in the calendar at kystlandet.com or faengslet.dk/en.

In 2024 it is 75 years since the escape artist Carl Lorentzen managed the impossible - to dig his way out of Horsens State Penitentiary through an 18-meter long tunnel that he had been working on for 11 months.

Here we've collected five museums, that really bring history to life - each and every one is a memorable experience for the whole family.
Glud Museum
Would you like to know how life in the Danish countryside has been during the last 350 years? At Glud Museum you can enter Denmark’s oldest farmhouse, participate in fun family activities, experience workshops with volunteers working as blacksmiths, wood workers and weavers - or go see the the big show hall with farm tools, carriages, and crafts.
Odder Museum
Odder Museum is situated right in the heart of Odder in a lovely green area close to the high street. When you visit the museum, you can explore the old mill that it is still fully functioning despite it being closed for 65 years. The museum is also known for its comprehensive program of activities and events, which often take place outside of the buildings of the museum.
Horsens Museum
Learn more about Horsens' history at Horsens Museum. See the exhibition on the local explorer Vitus Bering. Study the archeological artefacts and skeletons - or find out more about Horsens’ developments through time. Our favourite thing is perhaps joining one of the historical city walks taking place throughout the year.
Uldum Mølle Museum
In the village of Uldum you’ll find a beautiful Dutch mill, standing tall as an idyllic local landmark. See the three grinder mills where the production takes place and walk onto the gallery and see the 23-metre-long wings up close – and remember to buy some of the products in the mill’s shop. Inside the beautifully preserved mill you can also experience a historical exhibition about the nearby marshlands Uldum Kær where Denmark’s only river Gudenå passes through.
the 18th-20th century is celebrated and commemorated. This picturesque museum is located in the countryside near the river Gudenå. Experience authentic Danish craftsmanship, listen to the olden stories from the guides, or go explore the charming half-timbered houses.
Glud Museum
Horsens Museum
Odder Museum
There is plenty of opportunity for exploring history in a way that lets even the youngest family members take home an amazing experience. Learn a lot of new ‘fun facts’ about tractor history, agricultural history and industrial history on a tour of large and small museums with a lot of heart.
The old Ferguson splutters slightly but, otherwise, it starts without problems. The humming sound of the engine fills the air with nostalgia. There is something special about a Ferguson. On the farm Ankerslund, one tractor was not enough which means that, today, there is a line of 250 tractors in what is now called Denmark’s Ferguson Museum.
In fact, this is where you can experience the world's largest collection of Ferguson tractors. When the machines made their entry into Danish agriculture in 1917, they were revolutionary and, until the mid-1970s, almost every farmer had a Ferguson parked in the barn. At Denmark’s Ferguson Museum, you can follow the development, from the first models launched to the end of their heyday, which gives you a very special insight into agricultural history.
Just as tractors revolutionised agriculture so, too, did the rest of society undergo a revolution with the advent of industrialisation. You can learn about this in the most entertaining way at the Industrial Museum in Horsens.
Start by experiencing the old steam engines and internal combustion engine s at full blast. When the tour guide starts the big machines, it is difficult to remain disinterested.
Continue the journey through the workers' housing, where you will learn what industrialisation meant to the common people. Here, both the sense of sight and taste come into play when you experience how people lived, ate, and lived together at different times in Danish history.
Denmark's Ferguson Museum The Industrial Museum
Explore the idyllic village between Horsens and Juelsminde.
From the simple conditions of the farm worker to the elegant living rooms of the wealthy families. At the open-air museum in Glud you can experience the contrast between high and low at the countryside during the last three centuries. Here, the whole family can spend a day devoted to history, enjoy something sweet from the museum café and explore the beautiful gardens.
HISTORY COMING ALIVE
Go on a journey back in time and explore the history with friends and family. Play with history at the ‘Pilfinger’ museum, where you can take a nap in the alcove or try the old playground equipment.

Denmark's historical heritage is evident from our buildings, nature, sculptures, and the landscape. Go on an excursion to some of the most distinctive buildings along the coast, all of which were built on history.
Today, most mansions and castles are privately owned and not accessible to the public. But that does not stop us from looking at them, taking walks in the gardens where this is permitted - and immersing ourselves in the many stories that are just waiting to be heard.
By way of example, did you know that the fine lady of 18th-century Aakær Mansion wanted not merely to be buried in a silk dre ss and neat silk stockings, but also insisted on the stockings being replaced every year for Christmas?
Or that the noblewoman Kirsten Munk, who gave birth to 12 children during her marriage with King
Christian IV were kept in detention at Boller Castle from 1630 until her death in 1658? The king accused her of adultery, treason and attempts at poisoning and bewitching him – and banished her from the court.
This list of historic buildings in Kystlandet is far from full.
In fact, it is only a small sample of the treasures hidden in the landscape. Find many more historic buildings and fabulous tales in our online universe.

Venture into the recreational summer activities on Endelave, meet wild rabbits and follow the beautiful hiking trail “The Kanino”.
Endelave is one of Denmark’s most beautiful natural islands and contains a unique variety of plants and habitats, a miniature salt marsh with a rich bird and animal life, as well as family-friendly outdoor experiences. And, not least, lots of wild rabbits that have given the island the nickname "Rabbit Island".
Follow the hiking trail “The Kanino” 21 kilometres around the island or let Turridning Endelave show you the island on horseback. You can also rent a bike or go for a walk with Birgit from Writers Walk.
Put on the very high waders and go on a seaweed safari on Endelave, where you learn to harvest seaweed right there in the ocean. You can also buy products to take home from the seaweed shop. In the medicinal herb garden (Endelave Lægeurtehave), you can learn more about nature and find delicacies to take home, and in the summertime the experimental pop-up restaurant named Omkring resides here. A unique experience you shouldn't miss out on.
Endelave is located south of Horsens Fjord and can be reached with the
Endelave ferry from the harbour town Snaptun. The crossing takes an hour and along the way, you can enjoy the view of Møllegrunden with its many seals and maybe be lucky enough to spot porpoises.
There are also really good conditions for yachtsmen on the island, so feel free to bring the sailboat and dock in the harbor. Ohoy sailor!
During the summer, you can participate in an abundance of activities on Endelave - for free. The association called Endelave Aktiv Ø makes sure you get your heart rate up with activities such as crossfit, running, hiking, and martial arts. They also help you find inner peace through yoga and relaxation of the muscles.
Guided tours by foot or from the back of a horse
By following the hiking route “The Kanino”, you will pass some of the preferred habitats of the rabbits, which provides optimal conditions for spotting the furry mascot of the island. Find out more about hiking routes on page 76.

Tunø is a small natural paradise with a fantastic history and an atmosphere that everyone should experience. A vibrant island community with its own grocery shop, amazing eateries, treasure hunt… and no cars!
No summer without a healthy little battle on the miniature golf course and at StaldenTunø Minigolf you even get to play with an ocean view. In the kiosk you can buy the only classic waffle ice creams on the island and other treats when you're feeling peckish.
On Tunø there is room to unwind. Here you will find beautiful and lush nature that encourages presence and quality time, cool white wine and smoked fish at the harbour and delicious vegetable stalls on the side of the road. It is pure island idyll. If you prefer experiencing in your hiking boots, you can go around the island in less than three hours.
You can also rent a bike at the harbour and go up to the town, where you will find the small, cosy church, whose 18-meter high church tower also functions as a lighthouse. From the top, you have a magnificent panoramic view, which in clear weather makes it possible to see the Storebælt Bridge. You should also climb the island's high cliffs and the bird watching tower at Bjerget - Tunø's highest point.
Especially in the summer half-year the island is buzzing with life and activity.
The former camp, Blåkærgård, often has the pizza oven fired up and the coffee brewing in the cafe where everything is homemade. If you are looking for wellness and peace, you can find zen with a yoga class or a retreat at Holistic Balance who created the perfect oasis for this in Havhuset. Only a few steps from the marina you will find the beach hotel Mejeriet Tunø where the staff is ready to spoil you with cool drinks and delicious foods e.g. their own delicious smoked fish and other specialities.
How can you make children get up early and go for a long walk? You send them on a scavenger hunt around the island of Tunø! All scavenger hunters can get a free treasure map aboard the ferry. While hiking the 8.3 km walk around the island you must solve a few tasks. When you reach the finish line at the merchant’s house (Tunø Købmandsgård), all hunters will receive a medal. Read more about the other treasure hunts in Kystlandet on page 20.

Even though the Island of Hjarnø is located just 500 meters from the mainland, the island ambience is real. As soon as you get to the little ferry quay, time stops, and whispers of ancient history emerges and fuses with the sea breeze.
The East Jutland Archipelago encompasses nine yachting harbours with great eateries and loads of maritime charm.
You can access the island via the Hjarnø ferry which sails the 5-minute trip 30 times a day. Visit Hjarnø as a part of your island hopping in Horsens Fjord, or stay a little longer and breathe in all the authentic island charm.
Through the times, many have fallen in love with quiet nature and island tranquility on Hjarnø. The best way to explore the island is by foot, on your bike, or on a sightseeing-tractor-tour.
On the island’s southern coast, you’ll find the “Viking Ships”, a stone row probably from the Viking Age. King Hjarne, who the island according to an old myth is named after, is said to have been laid to rest here!
The church on Hjarnø is the second smallest in Denmark, and the votive ship hanging under the vault is a model of a Viking ship.
Det Grafiske Magasin is a combination of a working workshop and a coffee bar in which Jane Willumsgaard has her studio. Join a workshop, shop Jane's art, or simply enjoy a break and relax with a good, freshly brewed cup of coffee.

Try the charming bicycle-ferry from Snaptun via Hjarnø to Alrø, when you want to explore the area. When using the bicycle-ferry, you can ride your bike all the way around the inlet of Horsens Fjord – but naturally, walking visitors are also more than welcome.

Or at least a bison burger or bison tapas! At Alrø Købmandsgaard the meat is from the bison farm right here on the island. And specialities are made in their own smokehouse.
There is a special kind of atmosphere on Alrø. The winding road, the scattered half-timbered houses, and the beautiful nature with the everpresent coastline. Danish author, Morten Korch, did in fact live and work on Alrø for several periods, where he let himself be inspired by the surroundings on the island. The farms such as Bakkegården and Møllegården can be recognised in his writings.
The island is home to some very nice eateries. Visit Møllegården where the restaurant is set up in the former stables of a pig farm. And at Café Alrø, you can try to beat the record in giant patty shell eating. You sense the closeness to the sea and nature everywhere, and many windsurfers, kitesurfers, kayakers, anglers and yachtsmen use the waters around Alrø.
In the southern end of the island, you’ll find the old steamboat pier, which is a popular excursion spot all year round. This is also the place where the small bicycle-ferry crosses the inlet of Horsens Fjord and connects Alrø with Hjarnø during summer.
Eat very well in the transformed stables of a pig farmWould you like to get in touch with nature? You’ll find a wide range of stunning nature experiences to explore in Kystlandet.
Experience breath-taking vista points, the most beautiful part of the river Gudenå, idyllic and scenic forest edges along the fjord, historic trails, and more than 266 km of coastline.

Grab your camera and cross off these natural gems, one by one.
Sukkertoppen: Forget about Denmark being flat as a pancake. One of Denmark's mountains is found in Kystlandet 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.
Træskohage Lighthouse from 1904 is an iconic landmark of the area around Stouby and Vejlefjord. The 13-metre-tall lighthouse has 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.
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.
The deep forests of Sondrup are located in a hilly landscape on an elongated hillside that was formed during the last ice age - an unusually beautiful and varied area just north of Alrø. Both Sondrup Bakker and Uldrup Bakker are amongst the favourite destinations of the locals. Being 74 metres above the fjord, Blakshøj is the highest point – however, the best views are enjoyed from the hills of Trustrup.
The monastery mill Klostermølle is located where the river Gudenå feeds into Mossø, Jutland's largest lake, and is thus perfectly visited in combination with taking a trip to Sukkertoppen (the sugar loaf). The mill was built by Benedictine monks in the 12th century and has subsequently been used as a paper mill. Enjoy the amazing views from the bird tower at the northern end of the curing barn.
In the hilly Staksrode Forest, you'll find one of the most dramatic stretches of coastline in Denmark with high slopes, fallen trees, untouched and rare nature. There are four signposted routes, each with its own colour code. We recommend the beautiful yellow route which'll take you you past a real castle ruin and sea scapes that take your breath away.
Do you want to brag about having climbed Denmark's highest mountain? Then you need to tick off Yding Skovhøj as, at a vertical rise of 172.54 metres, it is taller than all other Danish peaks. That is, if you count the small Bronze Age mound at the top. At the top, you can enjoy the finest views of the the river Gudenå to the west while the wind ruffles your hair, just like on a real mountain peak.

Visit Sandvad Kro and enjoy a delicious meal made from scratch, with fresh ingredients.
The menu offers classic Danish food and dishes inspired by French cuisine.
The inn was built in 1865 and has been preserved in the cozy, Dansih inn style.
The inn’s premises provide the framework for many good times for dinners, a good cup of coffee, and life’s celebrations.
The area around the river Gudenå called Bakkelandet (the Danish Highlands) is characterised by wonderful wildlife, lots of lakes, forests, and some of the highest hills in Denmark.
Welcome to Bakkelandet, where steep hills and deep forests shape the landscape. Here, you’ll find time and space for being with your family and friends and exploring new things. Meet the friendly locals and delve into great food experiences.
The rolling forests and beautiful valleys hold something for everyone - the mountaineer, the canoe enthusiast, the history-buff and the outdoor-enthusiast.
When your eyes grow weary from all the beauty, you can recharge in one of the many charming towns around the countryside.
In Brædstrup you can find everything from the classic Danish dishes at Hotel Pejsegården to the more modern and experimental courses at Restaurant Rummelig. A short trip from the centre of Brædstrup and close to the gently flowing river Gudenå, you will find Det Lille Røgeri that sells fish specialities and food to go and the café at Sdr. Vissings Torvehal.
South of Bakkelandet, near the source of the the river Gudenå and the marshland Uldum Kær, you’ll find the town of Tørring – the perfect starting point – or resting space – for your adventure in nature. The town is caracterised by a tight-knit community, who’s main priority is to welcome you as a guest. Of course you also have to try canoeing on Gudenåen and you can do so with the assistance of the always helpful folks at Tørring Kanoudlejning.
Can you imagine? For 85 years, the old railway bridge lay buried, forgotten by many. But now it has been dug out and restored, so everyone can enjoy the beautiful craftmanship of the engineers.
The Uncovered Bridge is located in an area of great scenic beauty north-west of Horsens and is visited by more than 100.000 guests each year. It was originally built as a part of the railway between Bryrup and Horsens in 1899, and at the time of the opening it was the tallest bridge in the Nordic countries. Today, you can ride your bike across the bridge on The Nature Trail Horsens-Silkeborg. You should also go for a walk in the beautiful nature and enjoy your packed lunch at the riverbank.
The old railway track was covered within a dam in 1924. It was uncovered in 2014 when they removed the dam to create a greater water flow in the river Gudenå and thereby create a better passage for fish and animals.
Learn why The Uncovered Bridge was covered up and uncovered again.
The railway from Horsens to Silkeborg was referred to as “Denmark’s most beautiful railway” back when it was still active. Go for a ride back in time in one of the old vintage trains with The Vintage Railway Bryrup-Vrads and enjoy your lunch in one of the charming railway carriages or in the restaurant in the renovated station building.
Fuglsang Horseback Riding offers trips to The Uncovered Bridge through Bakkelandet (the hilly countryside). A unique nature experience for both novices and experienced riders.

In Tinnet Krat, a small spring trickles out of the ground. This is the start of Denmark's only river and longest stream - Gudenå. It stretches approximately 160 km through the landscape, all the way to its estuary in Randers Fjord. But the most beautiful stretch is found between Tørring and the monastery mill, Klostermølle.
The whole family huddles up – literally – in a canoe. That’s why, it is a completely unique way to be together as a family when the slim boat is pushed from shore and gently rocks along the river Gudenå.
Why visit the Amazon rainforest when you can visit Gudenå in Denmark?
The southern stretch of the river Gudenå is breath-taking with narrow, winding stretches and no larger lakes. The journey will take you through Uldum Kær, a protected bog with abundant nature. You get close to The Uncovered Bridge, the beautiful old hydroplant Vestbirk Vandkraftværk and end up at the cosy monastery mill, Klostermølle with a view of Mossø at the foot of the hill Sukkertoppenone of the hidden treasures of Kystlandet. The whole trip is 40 km and can be completed in two to three days at a leisurely pace.
Part of the stretch towards Klostermølle takes you through forests and is almost jungle-like which has earned it the nickname "Denmark's Amazons". 800 years ago, the monks of the monastery dug the canal to utilise the hydropower for their mill.
From Tørring to Klostermølle you are only permitted to sail in one direction and only using non-motorised vessels. This makes canoeing along this route especially wonderful if you are a beginner or have children on board. During the summer, you can also catch Modstrømsbussen (the upstream bus) completely free of charge.

The northern shores of Vejle Fjord are characterised by beautiful nature and a dramatic coastline. In just one day, you can visit beaches, forests, fossils, castle ruins and a photogenic lighthouse.
Start the day by being blown backwards by the most impressive views. From the characteristic high slopes of Staksrode Forest, you can see all the way to the islands of Æbelø and Funen. Looking the other way into the wild and untamed forest is just as fascinating. But do not worry, there are marked hiking routes of between 2.5 and 5 km which means that you can calmly venture into the wilderness and go hunting for the ruin of the robber’s fortress Stagsevold.
At the foot of the slopes of the forest, you can continue the hunt on Stenhøj Beach - look for fossils and playful porpoises which you can spot along the coast.
Make sure to stop by the shop Det Kreative Gartneri in the village Stouby. Here, flowers, art, delicacies, vintage furniture, and locally grown vegetables are waiting for you.
Further west, you’ll find the beautiful spa hotel Vejlefjord and its beautiful park as well as many historic paths in the park, which were used for promenading in the old days. These take you past the iconic Træ skohage Lighthouse, which offers a fantastic view of the fjord and is a favourite motif of nature photographers as well as Instagram enthusiasts.
Did you know that Staksrode Forest is home to the ruins of a robber's fortress? According According to legend, that is. Follow the yellow route and cross the moat via the small wooden bridge to get to the ruin of the medieval castle, Stagsevold.
…that Vejle Fjord was formed during the largest ice sheet advance of the most recent ice age? The northern coastline of the fjord is characterised by steep slopes where sudden landslides can occur, causing trees to fall onto the beach. Fortunately, developments are closely monitored which means that you can move safely on the shore.

On the grounds of one of Denmark’s biggest and most beautiful manors, Palsgaard Slot, you’ll find an exceptionally beautiful park. This open park near Juelsminde stretches out over 31 acres – with each one having been attended to in detail. The park has six ponds and a vast number of rare trees and plants, incorporated into the park’s flora in the 1800s by the then owner, Frederik Wedel Jarlsberg. In the park you will also come by a lot of sculptures by acclaimed Danish artists.
In the idyllic village of Haldrup, you’ll find this Japanese-inspired garden with streams, lakes, cosy seating areas and a vast number of topiaries. Enjoy the sight of the Koi carps and visit the gallery where colourful paintings are exhibited and sold. Twice, Den Kreative Have (the creative garden) has been named Denmark’s most beautiful garden. And when you walk around the 4,250 m2 garden, you understand why.
With its 20 acres of countryside, Økologiens Have (the ecology garden) is Scandinavia’s largest public organic garden. Here you can romp happily in the straw-playground, sit in willow huts, or have fun in the giant-sized sandpit. Or why not have a little chat with all the animals - pet a pony or scratch donkeys and goats behind their ears. Besides, you find pigs and a chicken run. Learn how to grow your own garden in accordance with ecological principles – or just enjoy a relaxing day in beautiful, green surroundings.
Close to the center of Horsens, you’ll find this old manor park, which is one of our favorite excursion destinations for families with children as well as for nature-loving city dwellers.

With both hiking and biking routes, and ideal conditions for sea kayaking as well as kite and windsurfing, the area around Horsens Fjord is a paradise for everyone who loves active nature experiences.
From spring to autumn, you can even cross the fjord on the small bicycle ferry and enjoy a bit of island hopping between Hjarnø and Alrø. Also, experience the solar system in the scale 1: 1498 million on the three-kilometre-long Planet Path that leads from Høegh Guldbergs Gade in Horsens to Fiskerhuset near Boller Castle.
From Alrø in the east, which has been inhabited since the Stone Age, to the cultural city of Horsens in the west, you will find great natural wealth, historical sights, and quaint museums. On the northern shore of the fjord there are beautiful eminences and beaches. On the southern shore, you should make a point of visiting the narrow peninsula Borre Knob and make sure to also pop into the working open-air museum in Glud.
There is also a bicycle route around Horsens Fjord. Read more on page 81.

Horsens Fjord is one of the most beautiful inlets in Denmark, surrounded by spectacular and diverse nature – and it is perfect to explore on bike. You can easily make the trip in one day, but we recommend you stay for a few more, in order to truly experience the landscape, nature and communities you pass underway. The surface varies between asphalt roads and gravel paths, with occasional stretches on wide, well-maintained forest trails.

– history on flat terrain
The nature trail along the old Bryrup railway takes you through the beautiful hilly countryside, over the Uncovered Bridge, past old boxcars, stations, a functioning part of the vintage-railway and lastly, to the grand lakes and deep forests in Søhøjlandet near Silkeborg. In 1968, the last train rode the railway. Since then, it has been a public nature trail. You rarely enter conventional roads, and mostly follow a flat and paved path.
APPROX
100 KM
– sights on wheels
Do you prefer longer tours through beautiful landscape, with the possibility to ride along the coast and go island-hopping? Then journey out on the trail Kulturringen – Culture by Bike. In total, the 540 km route takes you through Eastern Jutland’s beautiful nature and by the most notable cultural sights – however, the route is comprised of 22 individual stages, for you to choose and pick between. We recommend starting at Moesgaard in Aarhus and ending at Vejle Fjord. The surface on this stretch is paved all the way.
We welcome you to an amazing paddle experience. Break a sweat and have fun.

You can rent equipment for your water adventure in several places along the coast. For example, at Juelsminde Peninsula Kayak Rental, Horsens City Camping and Strandshoppen and Saksild Strand Camping at Saksild Beach.
You can join Outdoor Connection on guided tours and courses in canoeing, kayaking and stand-up paddling in the nature around the river Gudenå and in Horsens Fjord.
Kitesurfing at Borre Knob
Welcome to a perfect area for water sports! The entire coastline is perfectly suited for kayaking and stand-up paddling, while conditions at Alrø and Borre Knob are ideal for kite- and windsurfing.
Water sports have never been this popular. And with good reason! What better way to explore nature than from the water while also activating your stiff muscles?
Stand-up paddling has become particularly popular in Danish harbours and beach environments. It is truly a balancing act. But once you catch on, you are blessed with good views.
Everyone can participate, you actively use your body and experience nature. Stand-up paddling is mentally relaxing.
Our many beaches attract sun-hungry bathers. But seeing kayaks slide past you, out at sea, is quite common. The area is home to several rowing and kayaking clubs as well as rental places.
With three fjords, 266 kilometers of coastline, and a large number of watercourses, there are great experiences in store for all types of anglers, providing the foundation for a delightful and varied fishing holiday.
The coast around the Juelsminde peninsula is varied and, therefore, contains plenty of good fishing spots for every level of experience. You can fish using spinner or fly and you can fish from either the shore or from a boat. Sea trout, in particular, are fond of the waters here and it is also possible to hook garfish, flatfish and cod.
The area is known for its excellent trout fishing which peaks in periods April - June and September - October.
Vejle Fjord and Horsens Fjord are beautiful places to fish. The area around the sailing channel
of Horsens Fjord is particularly popular among local fishermen, where they can fish in deep waters with strong currents. This is especially true near the southern tip of Alrø, the southern coast of Hjarnø, and the tip of Borre Knob. However, be aware that the water suddenly becomes very deep near the sailing channel.
There is free fishing along the Danish coasts - that is, you do not need to buy a separate fishing permit to fish here.
You find particularly peaceful fishing in the many local lakes and streams but check the rules before you cast your line.
A great place to try your hand at fishing for the first time is the local fishing parks called "put & takes" - and you will find two of the country's best right here in Kystlandet. Both at Fyelmose- and Hedensted Put & Take there are excellent facilities - and the fishing opportunities are top notch! Among other things, there are children's lakes in both places, where the youngest have extra good odds of getting something on the hook.
If you do not have your own equipment, it is easy to rent it in Fyelmose's shop, Fyel-Shop. At put & takes, there is room for everyone - both the experienced and beginners.
If you need good advice on how to coast fish, we recommend a visit to Effektlageret in Horsens, which also offers a large selection of fishing gear.
Rent a cottage or apartment in our scenic surroundings, where you have good fishing opportunities for fish such as “Sunshine bass”, trout, yellow perch, perch, pike and eel.
Fishing is allowed from sunrise to sunset.
Our 5 fishing lakes are a total of 30,000 square meters, and have a special children’s lake with many smaller trout, which gives children good chances of catching fish.
The fishing lakes have good wind protection, handicap-accessible toilet facilities and a changing table.
Open year-round and daily fish stocking.
In streams and lakes, you often must buy a direct permit to fish. You can find it online at fisketegn.dk or at the local fishing union.

Explore our many inspiring galleries and art studios, and bring home delightful souvenirs created by some of the area's most talented artists and artisans — or roll up your sleeves and make them yourself at a workshop.
In Kystlandet, there has always been a proud tradition of art and craftsmanship. Just think of the nationally renowned local, Michael Kvium, who began his career as a satirical cartoonist for Horsens Folkeblad back in the 1970s. Tucked just outside the center is the 1,700 m2 gallery ART'M, showcasing a wide range of both modern art and sculptures in various styles — who knows, maybe the next 'Kvium' is hanging right here, waiting to be discovered?
The tranquil murmur of the Gudenå River through Bakkelandet also attracts many creative craftsmen. In Voervadsbro, along the protected stretch of the river, you can get your hands in the clay when you participate in a course at MolaMola Workshop and store. If you are already familiar with the craft, join a pottery course with Aage and Gitte Würtz in their rustic studio in the heart of Horsens.
For a true bohemian experience, visit the artists along the area's coast. Be inspired by the colourful works at Gallery Mynster on Alrø, be captivated by sculptures and reliefs at Arp Atelier in Bjerager, enjoy a creative coffee break with art, workshops, or just an inspiring conversation at Det Grafiske Magasin on Hjarnø, and don't forget the handcrafted ceramic creations at Pottemageren in the harbour town of Juelsminde or LM Unika in Daugård by Vejle Fjord.

If you want to let art under your skin, a visit to this impressive art museum is an absolute must.
Largest and most well-known on the Horsens art scene is the Hors ens Art Museum which, for more than 100 years, has let the public enjoy an impressive, rich and varied selection of modern Danish art in an atmospheric building with a fantastic inflow of light.
Beautifully located in the city park of Caroline Amalie Lund, the brilliantly white museum sits atop the hill of the park with its simple design and "white cube" architecture which easily matches international standards.
One of the central artist of the museum is the local-born painter Michael Kvium, who has a whole wing dedicated to his work. The large collection is continually rotated, so that you always have
a new experience when visiting the museum. Kvium has attained global recognition as well as much debate with his distinctive, engaging, and characteristic style.
Some of the museum’s permanent collections include Erik A. Frandsen, Christian Lemmerz, Nina Sten-Knuds en, Cathrine Raben Davidsen, and Bjørn Nørgaard.
In 2024, you can look forward to special exhibitions featuring Ida Raselli and Adam Christensen, and throughout the year, there will be a focus on the museum's 40th anniversary with a series of curated displays covering various themes. The year kicks off with the curated display "1984," which includes all the works (in sculpture and painting) that were part of the museum's existing collection
when it moved to Pavilion Lunden on Carolinelundsvej in 1984.
In the museum café, Café Ella, you find the Gravy Burger of the Year 2022. It is an attraction in itself! If you are into the slightly lighter dishes, they are naturally also on the menu. In addition, you can enjoy the views of the beautiful chestnut trees of the Caroline Amalie Lund as well as several of the permanent art installations and sculpture s in the museum park.
Go out and experience life! Big events with international wingspan, colourful festivals with music and theatre - and the whole undergrowth of local, interesting experiences that make life worth living.

Dig into our culture content at kystlandet.com and find our online calendar. Here you will definitely find an event or activity that suits your desires.
There are magical concerts and captivating entertainment at Horsens Ny Teater (Horsens new theatre), which delivers up to 200 performances a year, right in the city centre - in a building that is as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside. The program ranges from shows for children to classical concerts and everything in between – we can guarantee there is something for you too.

During summertime, you can attend a traditional Danish town fair at Juelsminde harbour festival, Hou harbour festival, and Odder town fair.
Or how about catching an open-air concert on a tiny island? Find your very own cultural fix in Kystlandet and pack your bags for an unforgettable experience.

Harry Styles, The Weeknd, Elton John, P!nk, U2, Metallica, Paul McCartney, and Madonna have one thing in common. They have all performed major concerts in Horsens on the largest stage.
Horsens & Friends features several signature events each year. We can recommend summer concerts like Rock in Lunden and the newer heavy-rock festival JAILBREAK, where the old prison yard is transformed
into a concert Mecca filled with street food, cool activities, and multiple stages. Or how about the beer festival Beers Behind Bars, where both new and seasoned beer enthusiasts gather to taste golden drops from the many passionate brewers that the Danish beer scene has to offer?
Discover your next experience at Horsensandfriends.dk.
If you love culture, music, and experiences that reach beyond the stage, you have come to the right place. The city's historic cultural house, Horsens Ny Teater, hosts over 200 performances and concerts each year – so there is definitely something for you too.
For 115 years, the theatre in Horsens has towered in the city center on "Mælketorvet". Today, the facade is made of glass and there are modern sculptures on the roof of the building, but inside the large theatre hall you'll find the original dome ceiling decorated with angels and stucco ornamentation. It is even said that the curved balconies house a mischievous theatre ghost - join a public tour and judge for yourself.
At Horsens Ny Teater, you'll discover cultural experiences of a unique caliber. Whether you want to hear the latest music or old classics, immerse yourself in another world, perhaps learn something new, or just have a good laugh.

Throughout the year, the theatre also offers plenty of entertaining cultural experiences for children of all ages. The lineup includes enchanting performances, kidfriendly scientific lectures, shows featuring popular YouTubers, and concerts with the youngsters' favorite artists.
With hundreds of annual performances, Horsens Ny Teater is a major cultural provider and creator, contributing to challenging and surprising the audience.

The local football pride AC Horsens calls Nordstern Arena home, and at Forum Horsens, right next door, the prestigious basketball team Horsens IC plays. Whether you're a fan of football, basketball, or not much of a sports enthusiast at all, you can have a great experience when the city's yellow heroes take the field.
One of the most effective ways of really getting to know a new place you visit? Go visit the stadium when the local football team plays! This also applies when you are a guest in Kystlandet, where the matches with AC Horsens at the city's stadium form the nerve in the local sports spirit.
As a spectator, you will experience atmosphere, entertainment, excitement, and togetherness. And you
really get this authentic local experience where the values and culture of the area shine through.
In AC Horsens there are no posh feelings. Here the players are aware that results do not come by themselves, but only through hard work on the training ground as well as in the stadium. A sense of community and the will to win has taken the club a long way - and these are values that are shared with the local community.
Have you ever watched a basketball game live? If not, Horsens is a great place to start. The city's basketball team, HIC, is a regular contender at the top of the Danish basketball scene, having secured 6 championships and 36 medals in the last 30 years. The atmosphere at Forum is always electric as the numerous spectators support the city's heroes. Basketball accommodates everyone – the fan base is diverse, including young individuals, couples, older fans, and families.
More than just sports.
The game on the field is entertainment in itself, but around the matches, there are activities and facilities that enhance the experience. At AC Horsens, you can visit the Irish-inspired pub, The Long Field Road. Families with children can choose to sit in the family section ACHibald's Corner, where they can have their face painted, play a game of FIFA, or a match on the panna court. And who knows –maybe the players will stop by for an autograph?
At HIC, the tiger and the panda always ensure smiles and a lively atmosphere, especially during the annual Kids Day when entertainment is in full swing with free treats, numerous competitions, and prizes to be won.
Both at basketball and football games, it is of course possible to have various refreshments and to satisfy your hunger. Often, there will also be specially themed entertainment for the matches.
Yes, of course, nature is lovely. But have you taken in the atmosphere in our cities?
There is nothing nicer than strolling through the city, going window-shopping, taking in local living and feeling the buzz of the smaller streets.
Oh, Horsens! The former industrial- and prison city with the qualities of a big city without actually being big. Free from over crowding, the bustle and the stress. Rich in art, entrepreneurship, soul, gastronomy, music, green oases, and cultural life. A charming city rooted in its history. And entirely one of a kind.
Horsens has managed to utilise its past as a prison and industrial city to its advantage and, today, it offers relevant and authentic experiences to everyone who come s to visit.
Beautiful and challenging street art peeps out of the nooks and crannies of the city.
The newly renovated city centre invites activity and life in the streets. There is room to settle down and take in the life of the city. There are super-cosy restaurants and sidewalk cafés - both in the wide pedestrianised high street and the intimate side alleys which are steeped in atmosphere.
A simple walk through Horsens quickly turns into an exploration of art when the cityscape suddenly shows off colourful and surprising details. The beautiful murals in the city are found everywhere - at Horsens Art Museum, you can get a free guide to sculptures and street art which you can take with you when exploring the street art.
Horsens also attracts the energetic, outdoorsy types who like to add a little greenery to their cobblestones. The town beach of Langelinie is a good spot for a refreshing stroll, some playtime or settling down whereas the historic Bygholm Park right at the city centre is the favourite destination of many locals.

With its irresistible harbour environment, top-notch beaches, plenty of playgrounds, restaurants, and cafés as well as its busy shopping area, Juelsminde has everything to be desired by your and your family's holiday heart.
The town is jam-packed with harbour charm as you know it from the coastal towns of southern Europe but without the cheeky waiters.
Here, ocean view is not something for which you pay extra but simply present everywhere you look. At the harbour, you'll find attractive restaurants with fresh-from-the-sea fish dishes, ice cream for those with a sweet tooth, as well as Juelsminde Havnemuseum (harbour museum), a playground, and a crab racing track.

You might have heard of Hou as the ferry harbour with connections to the islands of Tunø and Samsø. But Hou is so much more than that. The marina offers classic, Danish maritime atmosphere, while staying in touch with the unspoiled, old ferry port. Visit Hou and take a seat with a cold brew in the summer or hot cup of chocolate in the winter. The marina is located close to the town Odder, as well as to some of the best beaches of the area.
Sailors make pilgrimages to this super familyfriendly marina in a cosy setting, perfectly situated at the mouth of Horsens Fjord. A large playground, a pagoda, an ice cream kiosk and a restaurant as well as small "bush paths" along the beach make the harbour an activity haven for the little ones. There is always something going on here, especially because of the ferry service to Endelave and Hjarnø. With its proximity to the islands and other ports the harbour also has everything your family-holiday-heart could wish for.
We love Horsens Marina for its liveliness and closeness to the city. It has kept its original quality with charming wooden sheds from the old fishing environment. For families with young children, there’s a large playing area, a jetty for crab fishing and even a cable ferry.
The cosy marina at Norsminde Fjord is the perfect destination for a trip on a warm summer's day First and foremost thanks to the exquisite eateries – whether you have a taste for fish cakes from Norsminde Fiskehus or gourmet at the historical Norsminde Kro. Bring your family, buy an ice cream cone, or have a stroll at the beach. Norsminde marina is located right where Norsminde Fjord meets the Kattegat via a lock and a narrow entrance.
Don’t miss out on a getaway to Odder. The old station town has beautiful buildings, a lovely shopping street, green areas, atmospheric squares and a chirping creek that runs straight through it all. And of course – a free treasure hunt!
Odder is a busy town full of commerce as well as a haven for the family with children. Here you’ll find lots of exciting chain stores as well as unique specialty boutiques.
Begin your quest at Torvet (the town square) and try our treasure hunt – for free!
Enjoy a much-earned break at Polititorvet, where the soft sounds of the creek sets the perfect backdrop to the charming old-town square. It’s one of our absolute favorites! Odder is buzzing with life and activities for both young and old.
The treasure hunt brings you by the most important places in town, while you learn about local history and solve tasks along the way. Pick up your treasure map at Mosters Café at Torvet or at kystlandet.com and receive your very own medal after completing the tasks.
Don’t miss out on a trip where you can enjoy nature. Odder is known for its beautiful shores with long, family-friendly beaches, charming harbours, green hills, rustling cornfields, windmills, and blue inlets.
…that “Odder“ means “otter“ in Danish, but the town was not named after the animal. The name probably refers to a crossing between two water courses or a ford. Thus, on the municipality’s crest, you can see two streams that meet, thereby creating a spit of land.

With a mixture of speciality shops, well-known multiple stores and supermarkets, you’ll need to bring along the big bag.
From Danish design to local crafts, from lifestyle and interior design to sporting equipment.
Visit one of the fashion stores where you can always find some well-known quality brands. We recommend, among others, the men's clothing store Velklædt and the optical store Skjold Optik, which offers the latest seasonal styles in sunglasses. Intersport is the place where you'll find high-quality gear for excursions, camping trips, water sports, and much more.
You should also stop by Violen, which is much more than just a flower shop. Here, you'll find unique home decor, beautiful plants, flowers, and recommendations to take with you.
Odder also has one of the country's largest Kvickly stores with a well-stocked wine department. Pay a visit to the small, charming specialty store named Blas Kaffe & The, where the scents from the extensive selection of specialties reach out onto the street.
On the pedestrian street, you'll find the restaurant Vecchio Covento, which has a shop section offering delicious specialties and wines handpicked from Northern Italy, pairing exceptionally well
with local ingredients from the surrounding farm shops.
There are many other exciting shops to explore in Odder. Get an overview at kystlandet.com, or take a leisurely stroll through the streets of Odder and let your eyes guide you.
Odder has more than 1000 free parking lots, all in walking distance from the central shops. Wonderfully convenient!
Explore the pantry of Kystlandet and make dinnertime the highlight of your day.
The areas’ farm shops, restaurants, cafés and wineries are abundant with fantastic ingredients and mouth-watering menus. Do you prefer social dining, traditional Danish food, exotic spices or family-friendly establishments? No worries – we have it all!
Do you feel like food is one of the most important ingredients in a good trip? Do you think that the best souvenir is the one that tastes good? Then you are exactly like us.
Kystlandet has some of the country's best and fattest soil and therefore perfect conditions for food production, food experiences and enjoyment of life. We have rain and wind in appropriate amounts, but also more hours of sunshine and milder climate than most other places in Denmark. Here are forest, beach and fields, lakes and streams, mansions, and small, cosy towns, with harbours and sea views - the perfect setting for gastronomic surprises.
Let our food map guide you – in true farm-to-fork-style.
You will find small and large producers that make a living from growing, developing, using, selling and enjoying the delicious food that is grown all over Kystlandet. You often get the opportunity to look behind the curtain and learn about the produce and dedication of the craft. It can be the perfect way to combine, for example, a biking holiday with exquisite taste experiences.
Go on a tour of a winery, visit a mill, follow the production of beer and smoked salt, or hop into a pair of waders and go a seaweed safari. Perhaps bring an empty basket to fill with delicacies. And some glasses and plates, a cutting board, and a sharp knife – if it is to be an exceptionally delicious day. Happy hunting for your taste buds!
Grab a bag of fresh carrots and perhaps some homemade jam. The self-service roadside stalls are based on an old, Danish tradition and our deep trust in others. That is a thing of beauty!
Hunt for roadside stalls along the east coast of Jutland.
The farm shop Fru Møllers Mølleri
Karensminde Orchard
Everywhere, you'll come across the small roadside stalls where you can buy everything from berries and fruit to apple juice, eggs, jam, and the freshest vegetables. Join us on a roadside stall and farm shop hunt.
One of the best things about whizzing around in Kystlandet is encountering the many cosy farms along your way. They provide high-quality local products to restaurants, supermarkets, and other local outlets. But you can also get a taste!
Embark on a countryside excursion and discover delicious ingredients right by the roadside – for example, at Det Lille Økori, where Anders and Sissel ensure that their little farm shop Grønthytten always offers fresh oyster mushrooms, microgreens, and seasonal harvest. In winter, they also cut various types of greenery from the farm's plantation, which Sissel uses to make wreaths and decorations.
At Gaardens Grønt, the fields are bursting with sweet, red strawberries in the summer. You can pick them yourself or buy them pre-packed in the small roadside stall. In autumn, the attention rightfully shifts to the pumpkin field. Over 40 different types of pumpkins can be found here both for cooking, carving, and decoration.
Also, try to navigate through the corn maze and purchase delicious preserves or something warm to drink from the roadside stall.
The slightly larger version of the roadside stall is the farm shop.
And farm shops are certainly not lacking. Fru Møllers Mølleri is a complete and authentic rural experience, with everything that entails. Make sure to allocate plenty of time so you can visit the ice cream parlor, the butcher, the nursery, and the mill, and fill your basket with freshly baked bread, aioli, cake, and flour for homemade goods.
Zoom ahead to Karensminde Frugtplantage and get your hands on tasty, freshly pressed juice – or go on a plunder yourself and pick a basketful of ultra-fresh fruit! Also, swing by Brandbygegaard and fill your car with cider and wines from the organic farm.
Find many more farm shops in the overview on page 152 and go on your own quest for the roadside stalls.
Barrit Mejeri is one of Denmark’s smallest and oldest independent cooperative dairies. The small dairy has been operating since 1887 in the town of Barrit. In our shop you can purchase our homemade cream cheese in a wealth of delicious flavours. In addition to our dairy’s own cheeses, you can find a large selection of other delicious Danish and foreign cheeses.
Extended opening hours in the summer period are updated regularly on Facebook and on our website.

Go on a tasting journey into the traditional Danish kitchen. This is solid, authentic food that really satisfies you and makes your taste buds rejoice.
In Kystlandet the traditional Danish cuisine never goes out of style. Danish minced beef steak, fried pork with parsley, chicken, and asparagus tartlets, “smørrebrød” and “wienerbrød” – they have a special place in the Danish heart.
The most famous Danish dish of all is probably crispy fried pork with boiled potatoes and parsley sauce, often served with pickled beetroots and cucumbers or gherkins. Try it at Dollys in Horsens, Pejsegården in Brædstrup or at Korning Kro. Fried fish filet is another danish specialty. Get it at NIOR Bistro in Juelsminde, where you have a full view over the scenic marina.
If your heart skips a beat when hearing about these classic dishes, then a trip to the charming island of Alrø is highly recommended. Here you find several great eateries with traditional Danish cuisine on the
menu. You can try the famous giant patty shells at Café Alrø or enjoy the view of the inlet of Horsens Fjord, while you eat a beef tartare at Møllegården, a farm which is included in the writings of the famous Danish author Morten Korch.
Or visit the hilly countryside (Bakkelandet) west of Horsens and stop by Restaurant Rummelig, or go to the top of Kystlandet, to Norsminde Fiskehus (smokehouse). Both establishments serve traditional Danish dishes such as the fish dish "stjerneskud" (shooting star) or pickled herring which is a favourite among guests.
Are you more into cold plates, then visit Restaurant Møllers in Juelsminde or Mejeriet Tunø at the island of – well – Tunø, that both serve the culinary classic: Danish “smørrebrød”.
Denmark is world famous for the “smørrebrød”: an open sandwich where the base is a slice of rye bread spread with butter or grease, which is then topped with a good layer of cold cuts. The Danes have enjoyed “smørrebrød” since the 1880s, where the Industrialisation meant that many workers spent their days away from home, and therefore had to bring a packed lunch with them.
Dollys is a classic Danish family run à la carte restaurant. We serve homemade food based on quality local produce.
Experience our historic atmosphere at Horsens’ old industrial harbor – a great beginning to your experiences in East Jutland.

Here, you find superb restaurants and eateries, the best local produce, well-appointed wine lists and exclusive surroundings that provide you with a true gourmet experience. Bon Appétit!
At the top of Kystlandet, at the charming harbour in Norsminde Fjord, you’ll find a heavyweight in Danish gastronomy. Norsminde Kro, which was elected Inn of the Year 2022 in Denmark, has both a brasserie and Restaurant Près, a top-notch gourmet re staurant, as well as an authentic wine cellar.
In Horsens, the pedestrian street Søndergade along with the small streets in the area is known as “the Latin Quarter”. They truly form the city’s gastronomic nerve.
In Horsens, you can have almost everything your hungry heart desires, whether you prefer the classic, the spicy or the delicate. For example, visit the atmospheric Restaurant Eydes, serving the best of Danish-French cuisine with a modern twist, or experience the exciting and delicious sharing dishes at Gran Social. Having trouble deciding? At Ji-Mi’s in the Latin Quarter, you just need to choose whether you want five or seven delicious gourmet dishes, then lean back and enjoy great food in an intimate restaurant and exceptionally good company.
At the centre of Odder, the taste of a small Romanesque village peeps out. Vecchio Convento means "the old monastery" and this family-run restaurant serves you a portion of real Italy, honest ingredients and a deeply felt passion for food, wine, and classic gastronomy. A surprising and very special experience.
The restaurant Færgegården, at Hotel Juelsminde Strand, is worth a visit for those who enjoy particularly good food. They even produce their own wine! With views of Juelsminde and the blue sea of the Kattegat combined with an exciting seasonal menu, you are guaranteed a full and tasty experience.
On Alrø, you can dine in a renovated pigsty. Yes, it's not even a joke! In fact, we would say that you rarely eat so well on such a small island as you do at Møllegården. Contemporary, seasonal dishes with a personal touch not to mention a great atmosphere. Bon appétit.
See the full list of restaurants at the pages 150-151.

So much to see, so little time! When there is more to experience, than you can manage in one day, luckily the possibilities for accommodation are many. A vacation home with view of the sea, a cosy camp site or a B&B? Or how about sleeping in a former prison, a luxurious spa hotel, a mansion from 1775, or a restored palace? The choice is yours.
Holiday at last! It is time for relaxation. And for pampering. And preferably both at the same time. If this is your type of holiday, then you’ll love the spa and wellness experience at Hotel Vejlefjord Kur & Spa. Bring your friends or your sweetheart - but leave the children at home. This is your day.
Putting it shortly: Mmmm! Hotel Vejlefjord offers to pamper your body and soul. Feel the worries and thoughts of work melt away as your muscles relax. With a formidable selection of thermal baths, sensory showers, salt pool, saunas, steam baths and spa treatments, a visit to Vejlefjord is pure therapy.
You will experience how temperatures, lights, sounds, scents, tactile stimulation and the scenic surroundings sharpen your senses while simultaneously activating and relaxing every fibre in your body. In addition, you can experience Denmark's only Thalasso spa where you can enjoy the softening and de-stressing effect of salt.
Since 1900, the treatments at Vejlefjord have focused on pampering, tranquillity, immersion, healthy eating, exercising and fresh air.
When it was a sanatorium, these elements were essential for the recovery and healing of the patients. And more than 100 years later, these are still the principles - in renewed and refined form - that make you leave Vejlefjord as the best version of yourself.
A visit to Hotel Vejlefjord Kur & Spa includes fresh fruit, water and coffee/tea ad libitum. In the Vitalbar, you can buy extra refreshments, drinks and a light meal.
Enjoy a healing walk or run along the signposted paths in the lush nature of Vejlefjord. The park and paths are open to everyone – even if you are not visiting the spa.
Imagine waking up with a view of the fjord and surrounded by beech forest. Hotel Vejlefjord - also known as "the castle in the woods" - has lovely, atmospheric rooms and suites where you can get a good night's sleep whether you want to use the spa or not.
Spend a night at a manor house, at a mansion, a sanatorium or a prison and make the night an experience in itself. Here, you can still feel the presence of history - but do not worry, we have let in fresh air and the bed is new.
Jørgensens Hotel is a beautiful, completely renovated mansion from 1744 located in the middle of Horsens' historic pedestrian street. In addition to elegant surroundings, the hotel has a wine bar, a wine shop and a restaurant. At Comwell Bygholm Park, you are also met by historical charm and romance and, if you are (un)lucky, maybe even The White Lady.
Wake up to the sound of the ripples of the river Gudenå. We have cosy camping and tent sites along the most beautiful part of the river, and it is simply one of the most wonderful experiences in the Danish nature.
Hotel Vejlefjord is a former sanatorium and today its luxurious wellness and spa department means that the buildings have a healing effect on both body, mind, and relationships. However, if authenticity is the alpha and omega for you, go to prison in SleepIn Fængslet in Horsens.

What is more ideal for indoor comfort than a holiday home with a crackling stove? Meanwhile, the family can play a game or do those other activities, we so rarely have time for.
A holiday home is the perfect setting for your holiday in Kystlandet, regardless of the season. Here, you’ll find homes that suit both hot summers and cold winters and which invite to relaxation, tranquility, and new experiences.
The windy days of autumn provide ample opportunity to fly a kite or go for a walk in the forests and collect chestnuts for making chestnut animals.
In the winter, you can visit cosy Christmas markets and small galleries before returning to your holiday home, the blanket, and the crackle of the wood-burning stove. Also, winter bathing is more popular than ever. Do you dare experience the cold shock? Many holiday homes are located so close to the beach that you can quickly run back and get warm again.
Staying in a holiday home during springtime is also perfect! As the weather slowly gets warmer, you’ll experience the bustle of tourists and activity slowly rising. Dip your toes in the warming ocean, or maybe put out on a sweater and eat the first ice-cream of the season.
Kystlandet offers many fun and exciting activities year-round – which turn into great memories that’ll last a long time. For example, go on a rewarding treasure hunt in Odder, in Juelsminde, in Horsens or on the island of Tunø. It’s fun, challenging, (and free), for both kids and adult.
-
A unique combination of opportunities awaits you. You can be in nature, close to the water and the fish, close to the city’s cultural offerings, close to history, and also enjoy good hiking trails and MTB trails.
Bygholm Sø Camping is run by Supported Employment. On a daily basis, it is citizens with disabilities who, with great commitment, make the place something truly special, and who ensure that everything is in the finest condition.
Open from March 25, 2024 - October 10, 2024
With nature as your next-door neighbour and nothing but the sky above, camping gives you a feeling of freedom. And community. Caravan sites offer the perfect conditions for families and people with a taste for cosy gatherings.
Most of our caravan sites offer accommodation in real glamping style. We love it! The hedonistic holiday trend for those who want to relax in nature without getting their hands dirty.
And don't you have a caravan? No problem.
At almost all caravan sites in Kystlandet, you can spend the night in a cosy wooden cabin.
Kystlandet has a wide belt of lovely beaches, each with its own beautiful caravan site. If you cannot get enough of the sea, you can even camp on an island.
However, when staying inland, you do not have to miss out on water – here, you can choose between lakes or the river Gudenå as the backdrop. And where there is no blue, there is green. All in all, the optimum conditions for slowing down completely in meditative nature or getting up your heart rate in the soft hilly landscape.
The local caravan sites in the area are equipped with family-friendly facilities which means that the youngest members of the family do not get bored while on holiday. Playgrounds, games rooms, ball courts, ice cream kiosks and miniature golf are just some of the things on offer at the sites. And the beaches and the surrounding nature make up one big playground in themselves.
Caravan sites are popular and fill up quickly, so hurry up and book for your next holiday. Find a list of all of them at pages 152-153.
