    Hiking

    The history of the Kollund Forest, which hikers reach after crossing the small wooden bridge, is also interesting. This, although located on Danish territory, still belonged to the city of Flensburg from 1883 to 2006, which sold it to a Danish private individual due to tight budgets. The reason for the purchase in the nineteenth century was the desire of many Flensburg citizens to prevent the threat of deforestation and development. Another special feature is the fact that all German properties in Denmark were expropriated after the end of the Second World War, but not the Kollund Forest.

    You can get to the Kollunder Forest after crossing the small wooden bridge at the Schusterkate. The Kollunder Forest, although located on Danish territory, belonged to the city of Flensburg from 1883 to 2006, which sold it to a Danish private individual due to tight finances. The reason for the purchase in the nineteenth century was the desire of many Flensburg citizens to prevent threatened deforestation and development. Another peculiarity is the fact that all German properties in Denmark were expropriated after the end of the Second World War, but not the Kollunder Forest.
