Nature, Denmark

Denmarks lovely nature is very versatile, and you can experience large beech and pine forest, dune plantations, beautiful moor areas, which are coloured purple from heather during autumn, preserved nature areas, bird sanctuaries, where you can observe a number of interesting birds from gazeboes or shelters, drifting dunes, which move many metres every year, clay pits, where you can search for finds from the past, and lime pits with long galleries deep under ground, where you can see fossils and bats. Furthermore, the country is rich in recreational parks, palace gardens with ingenious plant and flower arrangements, botanical gardens, herb gardens with herbs and old medicinal plants, greenhouses as well as scenting and colourful flower and theme gardens, like f.x. rose gardens, Japanese and Chinese gardens. Along the shores you will find sights like spectacular cliffs, bird cliffs, rugged rocky coast, caves and deep gorges. Off the shore you can visit reefs and catch large fish.
