View of Denmark's highest lakes in Mols Bjerge
In 2024, ‘The New Lake’ was recreated in Mols Bjerge, 105 metres above sea level, close to Agri and Agri Sø, which was previously known as Denmark's highest lake at 97 metres. The new lake, which has yet to be named, is around 1550 square metres in size and already attracts a rich flora and fauna.
Agri Bavnehøj - a historically important site
Historically, Agri Bavnehøj has had great importance. In the old days, bonfires were lit on the hill to warn against enemies and later it was used as a centre for surveying. At the top you'll find a monument with an arrow pointing to significant points on the horizon, such as Aarhus Cathedral 21.8 kilometres away. At the foot of Agri Bavnehøj there is also a covered picnic area, ideal for a break after a day in the beautiful nature of Mols Bjerge.
