Beautiful nature

Lolland’s countryside is something special and an essential part of the area’s identity. Lolland has magnificent nature that can offer outdoor experiences for everyone, whether it’s on foot, by bike, on a horse or on the water.

There is everything here from forests and fields to beaches, sea, islands, fjords and large inland lakes.

Close to sky, sea and wildlife

Lolland has many beautiful beaches. In fact, there are 26 great beaches on Lolland, 11 of which have the so-called Blue Flag, which shows that it is a swimming beach in a class of its own.

A walk on the dykes on South Lolland brings you close to both the sky and sea at the same time and gives you an unspoiled, wonderful starry sky at night.

At the water’s edge, you may be lucky to find amber, and when it’s windy, big waves crash in from Germany.

There is also rich wildlife here. For example, discover the wild horses in the Saksfjed-Hyllekrog nature reserve, white-tailed eagles and other birds up close.
