Øhavsstien is a new hiking trail that opened recently in this part of Denmark.
It´s a hiking trail that goes around the southern part of Fyn and to some of the little islands off the coast.
The trail is well marked and easy to hike and it´s a great way to explore that part of Denmark.
in english it´s also called the archipelago trail.

Dyreborg is a very pretty little fishing town about 5 kilometers from Faaborg.
It´s your typical idyllic danish village with old houses and a little harbour, surrounded by agricultural countryside.
A fine half day trip if you wanna see a nice danish village.

The church in Horne, a small village just outside Faaborg, is one of the most famous in Denmark, because of the way it's build.
It's partly round and was used both as a church and as a place where the locals could defend themselves against invaders when it was first build.
Today it's just used as a church, but it's also a big tourist attraction.
In 2004 the movei "Adams apples" was shot there and the movie won quite a bit of international acclaim for it and made the church a little famous outside of Denmark.
The priest at the church has a pretty good homepage about the church and it´s history with some good photos.
It´s only in danish, but if you can understand that then it´s worth having a look at.

The little village of Horne, just outside Faaborg, is where I worked. It's a pleasnat enough walk, and the countryside is cool - there are gentle rolling hills, orchards, the odd windmill, a few tumuli, but mostly farms, and very friendly Danish people.
A bit further on is Bojden, which I never went to but apparently there were a few parties there. An old mate Claus lived there. He worked on the ferry to Germany and would visit the strawberry farm to give us meat and vodka he'd nicked from the boat. Thick Scouse accent he had, yet had never been to England in his life. Funny dude. I found him and his brother lying in the road late one night. I told them to get up, but they said not to worry, "cars would just drive around them, and could I pick up his bike for him from outside the nightclub by the harbour?" Hmm.

A quiet village off the beaten path in Fyn (Funen)
From Aarhus to the islands south of Funen, Faaborg was a pleasant stop. As it goes for many, Faaborg is a peaceful, uncrowded, place characteristic of Danish understatement.
