Spend some quality time in a holiday home in Jegum

Beach

The North Sea beaches Børmose and Henne Strand (both about 12 km from Jegum) are lovely sandy beaches with high dunes and Blue Flag. On Henne Strand you are not allowed to bring your car, but on the beach in Børmose you can bring your car all the way down to the waters edge. However, the beach does have traffic-free zones. Both beaches are ideal places for swimming, sunbathing, playing beach volley or pétanque, building sandcastles, walking and searching for amber. It is also very popular to fly with kites here.

Nature

The nature surrounding Jegum is one of Denmark''s largest nature areas with forest and moor. If you rent a private holiday home here, you can enjoy the lovely nature both inland and by the west coast. The recreated island Filso is located just a few kilometres from Jegum. From the observation towers, the ellipse bridge and the barrage, which leads you across the lake, you can enjoy the view of the scenic surroundings. The peninsular Skallingen is preserved and appointed a reference area of natural science. Here you may be in luck and see seals off the coast, but the birdlife and the plant growth of the area are unique as well.

Activities

Good nature experiences await you along the many bicycle routes and marked walking paths of the area. Jegum has a minigolf course and 2 tennis courts. You can rent bicycle and horse in the area and a Put & Take fishpond is available too. A water world is situated 6 km from Jegum and a golf course about 14 km away. Along the sea and in the inlet Ringkøbing Fjord windsurfers will find some of Europe's best conditions.

Worth a visit

Close to the holiday homes in Jegum lies the small town Vrogum, and here you will find more craftsmen and galleries. A drive of 18 kilometres brings you to the holiday town Blaavand, where you can also visit the cosy and child-friendly Blaavand Zoo and the impressive museum Tirpitz, which shows vivid exhibitions about Blaavand through many years.

Excursions

Bird enthusiasts can visit the lake Filso or the bird sanctuary Tipperne, which is located in the southern end of Ringkobing Fjord. The shallow water, surrounding the peninsular, provides good conditions for plenty of wading birds, ducks and geese. When you spend your holiday in a holiday home in Jegum, it is also obvious to visit Esbjerg - the largest town of the area. Esbjerg is a cosy town with sights for everyone (28 km). When you are in Esbjerg you can perhaps take a trip to the holiday island Fano, which is only 12 minutes away. You can also go on a daytrip inland to LEGOLAND® with fun amusements for children and adults (64 km), or to GIVSKUD ZOO, where you can drive around between the exotic animals from the whole world (84 km).
