Råbjerg Mile

This magnificent scenery makes a great destination for an excursion.

The sand dune was formed at the west coast (Råbjerg Stene) in the 16th century during the great sand migration. The dune consists of a 1000-m long and 1000-m wide mound containing approximately 4 million m3 of sand with its highest point some 40 m above sea level.

The dune continues to migrate east-northeast towards Kattegat at a rate of more than 15 m a year.

Raabjerg Mile can be reached with car from Kandestedvej and on bike from Vestkyststien (The westcoast route).

Raabjerg Stene can be reached by footpath from Raabjerg Kirke (Church).
