Experiences on the route
In Tranekær, you must see the beautiful red castle. Park your bike and take a walk in the castle park Tickon where you will be amazed by the nature and sculptures.
Not far from the park, you can enjoy a lunch or refreshment at Restaurant Generalen with Tranekær Castle in the background. The restaurant is open all summer except on Mondays.
Southeast of Tranekær in Stengade Forest you can experience the beech where Oehlenschlaegers found his inspiration for the national anthem.
If you get tired of cycling, you can change the bike for a segway at Segway Langeland. You can either get a guided tour or ride on a track.
