Hilly terrain, fields and forests

Laven is Denmark's only mountain town, so it almost goes without saying that it is a fantastic area to hike in. By the lake there is the opportunity to go for a long, beautiful walk around Bomholtvig to the other side of the lake. From there you can see the beautiful village of Laven, and how the campsite blends into the terrain. The area is perfect for walking/hiking - it is almost stress-relieving.
We have various route maps at the reception.
