The waterway – route T11
Waterway route T11 is a beautiful cycle route of approximately 33 kilometres, along winding country roads and gravel paths around the Stenderup Peninsula, which lies out to the Little Belt. You can follow the National cycle route N5 out of the city from Kolding Hotel Apartments while enjoying the view of Kolding Fjord. At some point the route turns off from cycle route 5 and is now only called Vandvejen and takes you out through the Stenderup Forests.
The old Stenderup forests - Nørreskov, Midtskov and Sønderskov - stretch along the coast of Lillebælt and contain an extensive network of criss-crossing forest roads. Here is a remnant of the large Farrisskov, which in the Middle Ages formed a belt across Jutland. In the forests you can find 5,500-year-old stone cairns and over 3,000-year-old burial mounds from the Bronze Age.
The route takes you on to Solkær Enge – a unique natural area with a lake, wet meadows and a rich bird life. Make a stop at Skamlingsbanken and experience one of the most important memorials in Danish history. At Skamlingsbanken you are 113 meters above sea level and can enjoy the view over the entire area between Kolding and Christiansfeld. Skamlingsbanken is particularly known for the folk festivals that were held in the years 1843-59 in support of the Danish cause in Southern Jutland.
Tour de France – stage 3
Stage 3 of the Tour de France 2022 is 182 kilometers long, starting in Vejle and finishing in Sønderborg.
The Vejle area offers short but steep climbs. before the tour continues past Jelling, and the UNESCO-preserved Jellinge monuments, erected in 965 by Harald Blåtand.
The route runs south through Kolding, which is known, among other things, for the more than 750-year-old royal castle Koldinghus. At the foot of the royal castle, it is possible to stay overnight at Kolding Hotel Apartments.
Baltic Sea route N8
The Østersøruten N8 is Denmark's longest national cycle route at 820 km (excluding ferry connections). In 2019, the route was voted Cycle Route of the Year in the Netherlands.
The route takes you through some of Denmark's most beautiful nature and past a multitude of exciting attractions. Around 96 km of the 820 km long Baltic Sea route runs through the beautiful coastal landscape of the Little Belt and through cozy, historic towns from Christiansfeld, over Kolding to Fredericia and on to Middelfart on the other side of the Little Belt.
So if you have the legs for 820 kilometres, it is obvious to plan a night or two along the way at Kolding Hotel Apartments.
