Pajhede Forest boasts some of the most glorious scenery in Northern Jutland with its beautiful trees, lakes and creeks. During the Second World War two German planes crashed into the forest, leading to the tragic deaths of both pilots. One was never recovered, while the other was discovered still attached to his parachute, hanging from a tree.

Highest point in North Jutland (136m) fifth highest point in Denmark

Knaghøj, located just 50 meters from Knøsen, is considered the second-highest mountain in North Jutland. It, too, consists of a Bronze Age burial mound in its upper reaches. You won't find a summit monument here. Only an old, leaning boundary stone adorns the flank. A hiking destination for connoisseurs, true to Goethe's old motto: "You only see what you know."

Mountain lovers simply can't miss the highest peak in North Jutland. It measures an impressive 136 meters, but the upper 8 meters are not natural but a Bronze Age burial mound that was built here around 1000 BC. At the top stands a stele from 1930 decorated with the royal coat of arms. If Google Translate is to be believed, this isn't a classic summit inscription, but rather a prohibition against lighting fires on the summit or within a 12-meter radius.

Unfortunately, there's no view from either Knøsen or Knaghøj. However, there's a viewing platform with a view right next to the mountains.

This beautiful church in Hjallerup was erected in an area that was heath for centuries and then consecrated in 1903. Every decoration here is very Nordic, simple and elegant.
