DRAVED SKOV
Nature lovers will be attracted by the Draved Skov (the forest) and Kongens Mose (the moor), huge areas covered by the original South Jutland forest vegetation. The area is altogether 500 hectares, and constitutes the largest forest in Denmark left untouched for centuries. In connection with Draved Skov, you come upon relics of the past, such as Retterstedet (the place of execution) and Krigsfangegravene (the holes for prisoners of war).
You just follow the paths along Brede Å. The stream has been restored to its original meandering through the beautiful scenery. Some places the stream has been dammed up with granite boulders, so it roars as it races along like a river. Moreover, Brede Å is among the 10 best places, when it comes to fishing waters, and it is a popular area for anglers.
Løgumkloster– a cosy town renowned as a trading centre In 1173 the Cistercian monks established the monastery by the stream, Brede Å, and in the course of the Middle Ages the town evolved around the monastery and the church.
