Fyn Travel Guide

 MikeBird Says:  Most of the houses along the coast road in Brunshuse each have their own private access to the water from a little pier. We had the use of the rowing boat and a pedalo that were tied up to the cottage's pier. The rowing boat was great. We were able to visit the island where... 

 MikeBird Says:  If you can hire bikes or take them with you this part of Denmark is a great place to explore. There are only gentle slopes and because much of the terrain is low level when you do find a rise then you can get terrific views over the fields and to the coast. We cycled from... 

 MikeBird Says:  From Assens catch the ferry for a 30 minute ride to the island of Baagø. We picked up bikes for DKK20 ( put the money in the slot) from the ferry harbour and set off. There's a helpful leaflet that gives you a map but it's difficult to get lost even if you go off the main... 

 Ekaterinburg Says:  In Funen the countryside is never far away. We visited in late August and the fields were burnt gold and edged with sunflowers. We were lucky with the weather and the combination of those golden fields, deep blue skies and furled clouds was amazing. So many guide books had... 

 Ekaterinburg Says:  Middelfart, seen here from the new Lillebaelt Bridge, is either the first or last town in Funen, depending on what side you approach it from. For my purposes it seemed a perfect place to stay - what I thought might be a fairly typical, medium sized Danish town. It's actually... 

 Ekaterinburg Says:  The Fyn Kunst Museum, Odense's Municipal Art gallery, was open on Saturday afternoon and if you are particularly interested in Danish Art then it's worth a visit. It features Danish paintings from the 18th century onwards, also sculpture and some contemporary work.I must... 

 Ekaterinburg Says:  Though not as well known as its more famous counterpart, joining Copenhagen to Malmo, The Storebaelt Bridge between Funen and Zeeland is just as exciting to drive over. Longer than the 10 mile Oresund Bridge, the toll here is also slightly more expensive. On both bridges it... 

 Ekaterinburg Says:  Odense is Denmark's third largest city and the Capital of Funen. There are so many detailed pages already on VT about Odense that I will only say, that yes it is a vibrant and visually stunning city and that yes, thewalk round Hans Christian Andersens house is like walking... 

 Ekaterinburg Says:  A small white church seen in the distance, surrounded by wheat fields. This is one of my most enduring memories of Funen. These churches are whitewashed with red slate roofs set amongst old grave stones and flowers. This one, near Assens, was not open when I took the... 

 Ekaterinburg Says:  The villages in Funen are legendary and describing them without lapsing into cliche is difficult. Let's just say that they are as pretty and as picturesque as you are likely to see anywhere in Europe.This photo shows one of the houses in the village of Holse, near Ejby.... 

 Ekaterinburg Says:  From the moment you land in Esbjerg to the moment you leave Copenhagen the E20 will be the most constant thing in your life. It makes getting across Denmark really easy and to our surprise it accompanied us to Malmo, then to Gothenburg and when we berthed at Christiansand in... 

 Ekaterinburg Says:  The Danes love their flag. Most countries have an affection for their flag but I never saw this demonstrated so often or so pointedly as in Denmark. The flag, the Danebrog is everywhere, and if you happen on any event you can depend on being engulfed in a sea of red and...
