Hiking and Cycling Routes
Experience Hærvejen – nature and history in one
From Himmerland Camping you have direct access to some of Denmark’s most atmospheric hiking and cycling routes – with Hærvejen as the natural focal point. Here in the heart of Himmerland, a landscape of rolling hills, forests, lakes and historical traces of a bygone era await you.
You live in the middle of nature with peace and quiet as your constant companion – and with plenty of opportunities to explore the area both on foot and by bike.
