  • Day 5 Aabenraa to Skagen

    Day 5 Aabenraa to Skagen

    Yesterday we travelled the length of Denmark, through the middle to the extreme North. It’s been mostly rural flat farmland in the South, but gradually changing to undulating hills and woodland in the North. On the way we stopped at Rabjerg Mile which is a large area of shifting sand dunes.

    Today our plan is to visit the extreme tip of Denmark, then travel South to Friederikshavn for the ferry to Gottenburg in Sweden.

  • Days 4 and 5 Bremerhaven ( Germany) to Aabernraa (Denmark)

    Days 4 and 5 Bremerhaven ( Germany) to Aabernraa (Denmark)

    our focus in the last two days is to travel North to Denmark which we have achieved. On the way we have past through mostly flat lands crossed by canals and ditches but also through the heavily industrial city port of Hamburg.

    We have changed the date of our ferry from Denmark to Sweden from this Sunday to this Friday. We have been looking for things to do in Denmark and because the big noisy city of Copenhagen does to appeal to us, we have decided to travel through the middle of Denmark to the Northern tip and then down to Freiderkshavn where we catch the ferry to Gothenburg. This will not take the 4 days we originally planned.

    This afternoon we have been exploring the historic old town of Aabenraa with buildings dated from 1711 onwards.
