Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Skagen à Hirtshals

Here’s a classic North Jutland ride connecting two iconic coastal towns! You’ll roll out from Skagen—the very tip of Denmark, known for its famous meeting of the seas and its charming yellow houses—then follow mostly quiet roads and cycleways south towards Hirtshals.

The route covers about 62 kilometers with a gentle elevation profile, so it’s perfect for a leisurely day out. Most of the way is smooth asphalt, and you’ll spend much of your time on peaceful roads or proper cycle paths, making for a stress-free ride. Expect to pass through beautiful low-lying landscapes, wide sandy stretches, and fresh sea air nearly the whole way.

Arriving in Hirtshals, you’ll spot its dramatic lighthouse and busy ferry harbor, a gateway to Norway and the Faroe Islands. If you love seafood, make sure to grab some fresh fish before heading home! This ride really showcases the best of Denmark’s north coast.
