Discover Vollerup: Forest Paths, Beach and Nature

Vollerup can be explored during your stay through interests in nature and beaches. The main attractions are a forest area with paths and opportunities for observing nature, as well as the coastal side with beaches and seasonal fishing. If you are weighing active days in the countryside against time by the water, the area offers two distinct focal points.

Forest Landscape and Nature

Vollerup Skov is predominantly a deciduous forest of beech and oak; scattered conifer plantations complement the woodland. The forest extends along the southern side of the large holiday-home areas located by Sejerø Bugt. Your impression of the landscape in Vollerup Skov is therefore shaped both by the tree structure and by its location along these holiday-home areas.

Red deer are found in the Vollerup Skov area. The Vollerup Skov location is associated with 107 bird species. Those who include nature observation in their travel plans will therefore find a forest setting defined by the presence of game and a large number of associated bird species.

Paths for Walking, Riding and Running

Vollerup Skov has a well-developed network of paths for pedestrians and riders. The riding route through Vollerup Skov is 3.1 to 8.5 km long and leads through hilly terrain with small paths. This range of route lengths helps you plan the desired route distance for each day.

Beaches and Seasonal Fishing

Gisseløre Sand is a beach in the vicinity of Vollerup. Large sea trout are caught at Vollerup Beach in almost every season. During the season, the site is also well suited to fishing for garfish and grey mullet.
