Ebeltoft Vig Essentials

Ebeltoft Vig combines maritime heritage with the glacial terrain of Mols Bjerge National Park. The area features the 1860-built steam frigate Jylland, the world's longest wooden ship, and the 1789 Old Town Hall. Natural highlights include the 137-meter-high Agri Bavnehøj and Trehøje's Bronze Age burial mounds, which offer views across the Kattegat. The southern Helgenæs peninsula contains the Sletterhage Lighthouse and the 19th-century fortifications at Olaf Ryes Skanser.
