June 3, 2025, View from Velling Gavl

The viewpoints Velling Kalv and Velling Gavl are located 119 and 130 meters above sea level, respectively. Velling Kalv is the lowest of the two points, but the view from here is the best! Kalv means protruding hilltop, gable means end (like on a house). The viewpoints Velling Kalv and Velling Gavl are located 119 and 130 meters above sea level.

It is no longer possible to go all the way around the lake, the road is flooded, just climb a bit and you will be back on the road

Back on foot with a dog harness, although we had to carry the buggy for the first few meters, but the rest of the way is easily manageable with a buggy
