The seal sighting was spectacular. We had already thought about it and hoped to see seals somewhere in Denmark. We had heard from other travelers that they usually see seals and whales on boat tours. But we didn't want to do that because it wouldn't be possible with Finja and without her she would have been alone for several hours. So our sighting was really a matter of luck. And how the curious head looked out of the water, an unforgettable memory. Of course we hope that it won't be our last encounter with Robben.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Island of Fur \u2013 a small but beautiful island<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On the way to the island of Fur we stopped again in Nykobing Mors for shopping. Basti made a bulk purchase so that we are independent on the island. Next we went to the ferry that takes us to the island. The island itself is only a stone's throw away and the ferry only takes a few minutes. What surprised us was that you didn't have to pay anything. In September and October, the ferry ride is probably free for everyone. First we have Stendal Graven<\/strong> and Bette Jensen's Hyw<\/strong> looked at, who were facing each other. Stendal Graven is a raw material mine, where a little is still mined. A bronze figure stands above the pit Molermanden<\/strong>, looking across the pit to the sea. The most beautiful fossil finds from the pit are exhibited in the museum on Fur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Bette Jensen's Hyw there are several burial mounds on the crest of the hill. From the vantage point you can see far over the island in good weather. Wooden boxes with bronze swords and daggers were found in the burial mounds. Even the traditional clothing of the deceased was in good condition. Then we go to the parking lot Langsteduller<\/strong> drove and were very enthusiastic about it. It was specified in the app as a place to stay and was apparently also created for mobile homes. There were several large plots separated by hedges and each had a seat with a table and a trash can. Simply great. We even had a view of the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Eisb\u00e4r<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After we had settled in and aligned the car, we went for a run. Here at Langstedhuller there are beautiful circular walks and from the coastal tip you have a beautiful view over the fjord to the mainland. We then walked down the steps to the beach and along the beach. The north coast of Fur's offers many cliffs and you can clearly see the individual layers of rock. A little further there are stairs up again and we walked back to the square. The weather was nice too, the sun was there and warmed up a bit. Since it's the north side we didn't get to see the sunset, but the view was still great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next morning, sleeping in was unthinkable. At 8 a.m. the community mowed the lawn and trimmed the edges as well as the hedges. So we were up early. Around noon we drove to the parking lot near the campsite and did a circular hike from there. It went along the coast above the beach and was also well developed. Or here hiking trails are partially mowed. The circular route Knudeklinterne<\/strong> can be run in different lengths and we ended up with 4 km. Unfortunately, we only had a partial view of the cliffs from above, which annoyed us a bit. But there was no way down to the beach either. It was also a bit overcast, but we were still able to take nice pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the Brewhouse <\/strong>For<\/strong> we also came by, which should always be well attended. In front of the brewery there is a stone sculpture depicting the history of Fur. The owner has several vintage cars in the large garages, which you can clearly see from the outside. Further through he still has a small rusted locomotive. Back at the bus we made lunchtime and decided to go to the brewery in the next few days. Since we liked the place in Langstedhuller so much, we went there again. We made ourselves comfortable and let the afternoon and evening fade away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Windgeplagte

The next day was really nice weather with a steel blue sky until the early afternoon. We sat outside a lot and enjoyed the weather. Basti had bruised his foot the day before during the hike and since it started to rain in the afternoon, we stayed. Did some housework, wrote reports and edited pictures. There was still bum, so the day was used properly. The next day you saw how it poured during the night and it should also continue to rain. So we decided to leave the small island again. In the morning more and more mobile homes came, but the weekend also came. The nights before we stood alone. We left the brewery for the next visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mols Bjerge National Park \u2013 \u201cflat\u201d land, wide views<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since it was rainy and a bit stormy during the day, we are heading Mols Mountains National Park<\/strong> driven, the Baltic side. Here we found beach parking right under the trees on a side street. There were several bays along the road. There was even a small overnight hut with a fireplace in front, which was actually used that evening. The beach is also not very far and you can walk quite well here. But since it's raining at the moment, the laps weren't very big. We just wanted to spend the night here and then see where to go the next day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Der<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The next day we walked a bit on the beach. But since it was windy and the waves were foamy, our run didn't last very long. Around noon the sky cleared up a bit and we drove on. We are to Trehoje hill<\/strong> driven, where you can hike nicely. The hill is 127 meters above sea level and since the rest of the land around it is fairly flat, you have a great 360\u00b0 view. It was still cloudy, but the sun broke through the cloud cover in between and we had a great view of the sea and Aarhus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Mols

Around the hills there were footpaths in the meadows that had been mowed. It was also busy here, the parking lot was full. After we took nice pictures and ran with Finja, we went back to the bus and drove on. At the Poska Stenhus <\/strong>we stopped and filled up our water tank in the parking lot. Poskaer Stenhus is Denmark's largest round dolmen with its 23 stones weighing up to 5 tons. This site, which is up to 5,000 years old, served as a burial chamber and place of worship for the settlements in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Poskar

Some spots on the ground indicate that there must have been more stones. Since Denmark is relatively stone poor, many stones were removed to build something else. After that we're still there Kalo slots ruin <\/strong>hazards. This is a ruined castle situated on a small peninsula in the sea and was built around 1310. We find it remarkable that both in the Nordic countries and here in Denmark, such sites are mostly free to visit. In Germany, money would be required for this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Kalo

From the parking lot we walked a promontory to the ruins. The "street" was an old cobblestone path that still showed clear traces from the Middle Ages. Despite the clouds, it was pleasant to walk and since the sun kept coming out, we were able to take beautiful pictures of the ruins with the sun in the background. Not much of the ruin was left. The floor plan as well as the boundary walls and a residential tower are still there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Karlo

The residential tower was provided with 3 viewpoints. Since the stairs upstairs were narrow, only Basti went upstairs for photos. Kalo's most famous prisoner is Gustav Vasa, who later became King of Sweden. On the way back to the parking lot, we considered driving towards Aarhus. However, as the weather forecast for the next day was rain and storms, we decided to drive to Ebeltoft and spend the next 2 nights there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Kalo<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It wasn't a special place to stay, just a large round gravel parking lot across from a soccer field in the middle of the woods. But here, too, several paths led through the forest to the sea. On the way here we actually thought about getting a pizza in Ebeltoft, as it was already very late to cook. But the pizzeria was so busy that it would have cost us an hour and a half to wait. So we drove on and only made a snack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next day was windy and rainy and we put in a day's work. I cooked food for Finja and Basti edited pictures. During the rain breaks we went running with Finja on the beach and we enjoyed the day. Despite the wind, the nights were good and since we were alone on the pitch, it was also very quiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
