Hjarbæk Fjord Camping

Options among different elements are yours to pick from straight from the site: borrow a canoe and get out onto the fjord, take one of the bike routes from the grounds, or potter along the Path of Hearts four-kilometre walking trail from the site to Løgstrup. Within driving distance, flutter along for a subterranean tour of the limestone mines of Daugbjerg Kalkgruber, along a kilometre of lit passageways via treasure hunt activities for kids. The mines are Denmark's biggest winter hibernation site for bats; tour guides will regale you with batty facts about them and the caves as you amble along underground. Also underground, over 60 kilometres of passages await at the mighty Mønsted Kalkgruber caves, some the size of cathedrals. A passage leads to two underground lakes, where a multimedia show projects the story of the caves onto the water and the cavern walls; you could also take the mine train, running along from the old factory and past the open pit to deep inside the mine. There are bats in these caves too – around 18,000 – so check before setting off that the caves are open to the public, as they close during the bats' mating and flying season.
