On the north side of Vejle Fjord you will be blown away by the impressive views. From Staksrode Forest’s characteristic high slopes you can see all the way to Æbelø and Funen!

It’s just as fascinating if you look the other way, into the wild and untamed natural forest.

But don’t worry, there are marked hiking routes of between 2.5 and 5 km, so you can safely venture into the wilderness and go in search of the pirate castle ruin Stagsevold.
