The reserves in Vejlerne and Skagen Gren are famous for the great bird migration. On Lille Vildmose, Northern Europe’s largest raised bog, you can see red deer, wild boar and aurochs. Here and in Koldmosen you can see the use the inhabitants of North Jutland make of the bogs. The North’s largest coastal fishing village is at Thorupstrand in Hanherred. This area is especially rich in memories of the past. |

Nordsøstien runs through famous beach towns such as Blokhus, Løkken, Lønstrup, Tversted, Gl. Skagen, Aså and Øster Hurup. Here you can study tourism’s cultural environments as well as the town’s history in trading and fishing.
