Day 6: Trip to Rubjerg Knude

Slow day in northern Denmark: Blue sky, no storm
We decided to visit Rubjerg Knud, a drifting sand dune, southwest of Hirtshals. It is also the highest sand dune in Denmark.

It was a very pleasant drive.

Auto

A 1,2 km hike from the car park brought us to the dune and the lighthouse.

The view from the top was really great. The dune has passed the light house in the last decades, causing the neighboring buildings to collapse.

The lighthouse is at risk to collapse due to coastal erosion. It is currently planned to move the lighthouse 40-60 meters inland. In one piece!

We headed back with one charging stop Hjørring. We probably didn't need it. In Theory we had a range of 72 km today.
