Nature and hiking routes
Aabenraa Municipality offers many opportunities to explore nature. The municipality has a fine mesh of interconnected bicycle and hiking routes, such as Hærvejen and the Gendarme Path. Take a look at the following folders with suggested tours and get inspired.
The Gendarme Path (Gendarmstien)
When you follow the Gendarme Path, it is easy to imagine how the border gendarmes kept both eyes and ears open as they walked their regular routes, along steep slopes, through secretive forests and down flat beaches.
The Border Route
The 66 km long North Sea-Baltic Sea Route offers an attractive and clearly marked bicycle route that may be combined in many different ways.
The Ancient Road (Hærvejen)
Before the cars and the railway, Jutland’s main road followed the water divide through the peninsula. At that time, the Ancient Road consisted of humble and narrow gravel roads. Also, it was not just one road - a network of smaller roads made up what is known today as the Ancient Road.
