1st stop: Start your trip in Mariager, a charming town with a picturesque harbor and historic half-timbered houses, which you can easily reach by train. After a stroll through the town, it's worth cycling along the coast to an overnight spot: check into your host Anni's Bubble Tent with a view of the Mariagerfjord - a perfect start to the tour with the opportunity to jump straight into the water and start the day.
2nd stop: The next day, you cycle around 30 kilometers to Nibe. This charming town on the Limfjord impresses with its cozy atmosphere and historic architecture. The route feels like a ride through Hobbitland, with relaxing hills and friendly sheep along the way. Spend the night in host Karen's wooden cabin in the middle of the forest with fantastic views of sunsets and the surrounding nature. Maybe you'll discover one of Denmark's "Big 3" on the hinterland safari?
3rd stop: Ride about 25 kilometers from Nibe to Hals, a coastal town with a maritime flair and endless sandy beaches. Relax on the beach after your bike tour or venture into the water to surf. The overnight stay promises a touch of luxury in the middle of the countryside: discover the glamping tent on a wild meadow, lovingly prepared by your hosts Karina and Lisanne, with extensive facilities and a campfire site for cozy evenings in the open air. This 3-day cycle tour through North Jutland promises to be an unforgettable adventure that allows you to experience the many facets of Danish nature up close!
So let's get going: Pack your bike bags and get pedaling.

After a not-too-long drive through beautiful nature, a beautiful cabin in the middle of the forest awaits you on the Limfjord south of Aalborg. Here, comfort meets sustainability. At the top of the hill, well hidden among the trees, lies Aadalshytterne, where you can spend the night in the wild and unique nature. Here you can wake up with the first rays of sunshine while the birds sing their morning song. The view over the valley is unique and offers you an extraordinary panorama. There is a campfire site near the huts for cozy evenings in the open air.

Enjoy the sauna and feel the well-being spread through your body after a refreshing cold shower. From your accommodation, you can quickly reach the fine sandy beach or the dense forest by bike. Alternatively, you can stay in the camp, read a good book in the hammock, play under the large parasol, cook by the campfire and snuggle up under the blanket when the stars appear in the sky.
