Welcome to the Eastern Jutland archipelago

The small idyllic island of Tunø in the Kattegat is a real gem. Feel the atmosphere of the port and the charming town. Visit the combined church and lighthouse and take the beautiful, 8-kilometer-walk around the island. Children and childish grownup receive a free medal for doing that.

Alrø, in Horsens Fjord, is connected to the mainland by a dam. Take the bike to Alrø and sail across the fjord with the small bicycle ferry. Here, you find delicious eateries – e.g. try the famous giant filled patty shells of Café Alrø.

One of Denmark's finest islands is the home to thousands of wild rabbits. See if you can spot them in the beautiful scenery.

Small and charming Hjarnø is located close to the coast of Horsens Fjord. From here, you can take the bicycle ferry to Alrø and kill two birds with one stone.

Samsø is the area's largest island. Like the neighbouring island of Tunø, Samsø is known for its stalls with fresh vegetables and locally produced high-quality produce.

The islands in this area each have their own ferry that takes residents and guests back and forth between the mainland and the islands. The crossing is cosy and unpretentious. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with the view from the deck. Maybe you are lucky enough to spot seals or porpoises.
