Timeline

    Pipstorn Skov

    Walk the trails through Pipstorn Skov. The forest holds megalith graves and burial mounds that have stood for thousands of years. It is a quiet place to clear your head before the evening rush.

  2. 19:22

    Soze kaffe og risteri

    Head to Soze kaffe og risteri for a coffee or a light snack. They roast their own beans and serve tapas. It is a cozy spot to wait out the final hours of daylight before the main event.

  3. 20:22

    SW

    Make your way to SW. This viewpoint faces southeast, but on this date the sun sets toward the WNW. Walk to Klinteparken or Klinten Strand for the best unobstructed view of the sun dipping below the horizon over the water.

  4. 21:07

    Klokken, tid til hygge...

    End the evening at Klokken, tid til hygge. It is open late and serves drinks. The billiard table and relaxed atmosphere are perfect for staying a while after the sun has gone down.

Local tip

The walk from the forest to the coast is long. Plan your timing so you have enough energy to reach the water before the light fades completely.
