What to experience on Tunø

Don’t miss the island’s most beautiful view from Tunø Church’s unique tower, which as the only one in Denmark is also a lighthouse. At the top, you can sense why some people compare it to Olafur Eliasson’s rainbow at Aros in Aarhus. Here you also get a spectacular view in many colours. In fact, in clear weather you can see all the way to the Great Belt Bridge.

TGet a treasure map on the ferry and travel about 8.3 km around the island with it in hand. If you answer the questions correctly along the way, a treasure awaits at Tunø Købmandsgård, which is a beautiful specially made Tunø medal for all children and childish souls. A perfect way to get someone on the experience regardless of whether the temperature is 12 or 24 degrees, and it’s also free.

This combined art gallery and café on Tunø offers a cosy atmosphere, perfect for enjoying some homemade pastries, delicious craft beers, or a glass of wine.

Visit Tunø’s mini-golf course for a fun challenge with family or friends, and relax with ice cream, cold drinks, or light snacks.

At the harbour on Tunø, just a short stroll from the ferry berth, you can hire a bike at a reasonable price and easily get around this car-free island. Set off with peace of mind and explore at your own pace, without sharing the road with fast-moving, noisy traffic.

Seize the opportunity to live like a Viking on Tunø. At the southern beach, there's a camp set up reserved for those who wish to live and dress as Vikings - creating a shared Viking community.

Try this exceptionally beautiful hike on the car-free island of Tunø. The trail circles the entire island, following the coastline, much of it along the top of the island's high cliffs

From the west side of the island you have a view of a dozen 63-metre high wind turbines that make up Tunø Knob, the world’s oldest offshore wind farm. As they sit on the horizon, the turbines mark a great milestone for Danish wind energy when they were built by the wind turbine giant Vestas in 1995, and are not least a special sight for anyone with an interest in sustainable energy sources.

Tunø’s highest point offers a fantastic view of the town, countryside and wildlife. Feel free to bring a bird book from home - you will need it!

On the large playground by the harbour, children can take up the challenge and try their hand at the obstacle course. The course is also really good and challenging for adults, we should say. Nearby is another fun activity for both big and small - catching crabs.
