About Mols Bjerge National Park in Denmark<\/h2>\n
\n

Mols Bjerge National Park is a fantastically beautiful nature reserve in Denmark. Where you will find many hiking trails, charming villages and beautiful nature. Mols Bjerge is located in the municipality of Syddjurs and stretches from the coast of the Kattegat in the east to the forests near Kal\u00f8 in the west. With inlets and bays in the south. <\/p>\n

The park is approximately 180 km\u00b2 (18,000 hectares) and you will find several villages. Of which Ebeltoft<\/a> is the best known. <\/p>\n

You will find large forests, heaths, open dry grasslands, lakes and coastal strips. It is precisely this variation that makes Mols Bjerge so nice to walk in: every kilometer looks different.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rolling hilly landscape<\/h3>\n

The landscape was formed by the last ice age<\/strong>, with green hills, lakes and boulders. The highest point is the Agri Bavneh\u00f8j hill with a height of 137 meters.<\/strong> From where you have a beautiful view. One of the walks I did passes this point. <\/p>\n

In Mols Bjerge you can encounter roe deer, foxes and badgers, among other things. On the coast there is a chance that you will see porpoises passing by, and regularly also seals. There is a rich bird life in the sky. You can hear the yellowhammer and there are also bird species such as the red-backed shrike. And don’t forget the bats: they hunt insects here in the evening. <\/p>\n

In the visitor center<\/strong><\/a> you will find a small museum where you can learn which animals live there. Quite impressive. <\/p>\n

Why Mols Bjerge is important in Denmark<\/h3>\n

The official objective of the national park<\/strong><\/a> is to preserve and strengthen nature, biodiversity, landscape, cultural history and the special geology. And to also give visitors the opportunity for outdoor activities and education. This makes Mols Bjerge not only a beautiful hiking area, but also a place where Denmark shows how nature, recreation and heritage come together. <\/p>\n\n\t\t
