Visit Fyn

04/02/2025

Worth a visit all seasons 🌟This is Enebærodde, Fyn's largest heathland.

Some might call Enebærodde a hidden gem or a forgotten natural treasure. One thing’s for sure—it’s well worth a visit, even on cloudy days. ⛅️

Getting here is a bit of a hassle as there is no public transport, so you'll have to drive or cycle unless you're staying in the nearby holiday homes... Guess it's part of the charm

The area consists of a 6-kilometer-long peninsula, varying in width from 20 to 750 meters. That means there’s plenty of space to roam when you visit, whether you choose to walk the distance, bike, or bring your fishing rod—there are plenty of great fishing spots here. 🎣

Psst… Did you know that Enebærodde is named after the juniper bushes growing on the heath? You’ll also find bell heather, common heather, and crowberry.

Postcard from Nyborg, where swirling wind has created some sort of... beach desert, we think? Looks pretty cool ✨

Speaking of Nyborg, here are some ideas for your next day trip to the story-rich coastal town.

🌾 Put on your most comfy hiking boots and start your day hiking with sea view! We recommend the route Mellem Fjord og Bælt, which is a longer route of 18.5 km, but of course you can adjust it as you please.

Here you follow the coast along the Great Belt, past Knudshoved and Østersø, where you'll find a rich bird and animal life and a special plant life. You should also remember to make your way past the lighthouse, the lighthouse and the Great Belt Bridge itself. The area is definitely worth a visit. 🌟

🥐 Then head into Nyborg town for lunch or a nice cup of hot chocolate or coffee. In Nyborg you'll find a number of great restaurants and cozy cafés ready to welcome you. Try or 😋

🏠 Stop by Borgmestergården, which is located close to the square. The fine red Renaissance courtyard houses Nyborg's cultural history museum. Here you can see exhibitions about life in Nyborg and Denmark in the past, based on the farm's unique setting.

🔉 If you have several kilometers in your legs, you can top your trip with a historical walk on the ramparts behind the old royal castle 👑 Here you can listen to audio walks and dive into the history of the Battle of Nyborg in 1659 - one of the most important battles in Danish history. Download the Useeum app and find the audio walk Nyborg's Hidden Tales. Here you can listen to the story of the Battle of Nyborg under “De Små Skjulte”. 📜
