Bålpladsen ved Brigsted Strand

The site has 2 shelters, a large campfire area, a toilet, and space for tents. Here is peace and idyll by Horsens Fjord with flowers and grazing cattle on the salt marshes. The site is sheltered from the landside by an old apple orchard and screened by smaller trees. It is less than 100 meters to the beach, where there is excellent bathing water quality, very shallow water - good for children - here you can swim, wade, and catch shore crabs at sunset. A good place to see birds during the day; wading birds, cormorants, and the pair of white-tailed eagles that breed on the protected island Vorsø, which you can see across. A good place to see stars at night if it’s clear, as there is low light pollution and a view of the sky. Perhaps you’ll hear the long-eared owl… Facilities: • Overnight stays for up to 12 people (6 in each shelter), possibly tents • Maximum 2 consecutive nights allowed at the site • Table-benches and a higher kitchen table • Fire pit – bring your own firewood, dry twigs and smaller branches may be collected • Leave the site clean and tidy - take all trash with you • Water tap is open during the summer, toilet is open year-round (dry toilet) • Relatively wheelchair accessible, as you can be dropped off at the parking lot near the shelter and roll across fairly even grass - see photos. The site is located on Naturstyrelsen’s land but is established and operated by Horsens Kommune, Natur og Miljø. Shelters can be booked via link.
