Hiking
Make a stop at the humble source of the Skjern River, Denmark's largest river by volume. Here, in the quiet area of Tinnet Krat, you'll find the small spring that gives rise to this powerful waterway. It's a truly fascinating experience to see the beginning of such a major river, and it's a key highlight for anyone hiking the Hærvejen route. The area is a fantastic spot to reflect on the immense natural forces that shape the landscape.
