Vejlerne

Distance: 46,9 km

On the border between Thy and Han Herred, there is a world of its own – an indescribable experience for nature lovers.

Here is Vejlerne – Northern Europe’s largest bird sanctuary – an approx. 6,000 hectares of low-lying area, lying as meadows, reed forests and brackish water lakes, a Ramsar site of international importance.

Since Vejlerne is the birds’ sanctuary, people do not have access to the area, but the birds can be studied from dams and bird towers.
