1. stop: The Black Clover Path - Holckenhavn Fjord
The valley of Holckenhavn Fjord and Ørbæk river was created during the Ice Age. A large glacier filled the entire Great Belt and the nearest land areas creating meltwater rivers, which ran under the ice and were so powerful that they formed valleys in the ground.
The evening sun goes down and the birds land on the mirror-like Holckenhavn Fjord. That is often just how it is. Enjoy the countryside here along paths following a disused railway, through bogs and salt marshes, past castle mounds and sacred springs.
A very pretty figure of a Madonna is among the furniture and also a nave, a chalice, candelabrum and silver plates from 1661. Please contact the church for further information.
