'Hiking' the Tre Moles


Hej min venner!


The first stop yesterday was to a manor house where one of our teachers Aunt's (John-above) was a governess.



Next, we stopped at a sort of wanna-be Stonehenge; a compilation of 23 rocks (it was 24, until a few Danes were lacking in pavement supplies. Yes, really.)



The historic/scientific significance of this organized geology is unknown. Nonetheless, it was fun to climb on. I was also forced to stand upon one of these rocks while being birthday serenaded in Danish.


A peak down one the roads headed toward the top of the 'mountain.' The 'Tre Mols' (or three hills) stand at an astounding 137 meters.


Notice the completely flat surroundings. This mountain range/dot on a topographical map is actually very near the coast and was formed during the Ice Age as ice eroded sand dunes. I'm pretty sure that the dunes in the Outer Banks where I've been hangliding are actually a more challenging hike.



Farvel for nu! -Elise
