Have an active holiday in Frederikshavn

But there's every reason to get away from the city - in the sense that the area around Frederikshavn offers magnificent opportunities for exciting hikes and beautiful bike rides.

In recent years, it's not just MTB bikes that have been getting a lot of air time. The so-called gravel bike has become hugely popular; riding your racer (with heavier tyres and sturdier equipment than usual) on trails and back roads off the more well-known road routes.

This gives cyclists the opportunity for both good exercise and great experiences of nature. Cycling along the natural fences in the countryside, with the gravel singing under your tyres, it's really hard to be in a bad mood.

There are plenty of MTB routes in Frederikshavn, and they are maintained by local enthusiasts who really care about presenting the area beautifully for exercisers.

And if you prefer hiking, the options are equally good: there are a number of signposted hiking routes of varying length and difficulty, and you'll often meet other hikers or joggers on the trails.

There is access to private forests in the area during the period of the day when the sun is up. Of course, both here and in nature in general, you are expected to be a good and caring guest.

But there are also plenty of great experiences waiting for you in the beautiful surroundings in and around Frederikshavn town.
