Mølle Lønstrup [DK 🇩🇰]

Highlight • Monument

At the end of the last century I was still able to experience the mill with wings. Even without it, the mill on the hill can be seen from many places in Lønstrup.

Slettingen Nature School Bike Drive-In Exhibition

The Naturskolen offers a free insight into the history and nature of the area. Very nice because the museum is a drive in directly on the bike path.

This beautiful section of Route 1 traverses the scenic Tornby Klitplantage. It offers a varied landscape of inland dunes, heathland, and coastal forest, with panoramic views of the North Sea. There’s also a picnic bench along the way.

Highlight (Segment) • Trail
