April 25, 2024,DK: Søndervig- Bagges Dæmning

In the north you can cross the Ringkøbing Fjord via the Bagges Dæmning. There is no real circular hiking trail, however. You can park north of the road at a small rest area. You have to share the path with cyclists, but there were only a few of them today. Hikers even fewer, because dark rain clouds threatened the whole …

Heavy storm today, so I cancelled the bike tour and put on my shoes. I was sandblasted on the beach, then I could hardly move forward...
Nobody else was at the water except me...
The surfers were having fun in the fjord...

October 3, 2023,Mitteljütland: Bagges Dæmning über den Ringkøbing Fjord

Around 1840/1860, Søren Hansen Bagge had a plan to use a dam to separate part of the huge Ringkøbing Fjord in order to drain it and create arable land. Mr. Bagge didn't quite succeed, so his son completed the project. However... the dam only lasted a year, then a storm blew over it and broke two breaches in it.
It …

At first we were irritated because the tour starts on a busy road, but after about 15 minutes it was only through meadows on level paths. A nice hike, even with strong winds, like today.
