    Hiking

    Svenskekløften is also called Djævlekløften. It is located in the middle of Hesede Forest, and is a 25 meter deep meltwater gorge from the last ice age.
    Legend has it that during the war in 1660, the Swedes hid from Gøngehøvdingen Svend Poulsen and his men in the gorge. Hence the nickname Svenskekløften.


    The Swedish gorge is one of the dramatic creations of the ice age. The meltwater of the ice has cut a deep scar in Hesede Forest. At the same time, more death holes were created, now lakes.
