📍 Gråstenskovene

About the venue

Gråstenskovene is a state-owned forest of around 700 hectares near Gråsten, designated both a national landmark and a Natura 2000 area. The predominantly beech woodland has been linked to Gråsten Castle since the 16th century and passed into state ownership after the 1920 reunification with Denmark. The hilly terrain - shaped by the last ice age - features lakes, meadows and deep ravines, along with the Bronze Age burial mound Hjertehøj and the so-called princess lakes, once ducal carp ponds. Marked walking trails, fire pits and the Agernhuset lunch hut are available to visitors.
