Råbjerg Mile

To the south of Skagen lies a large area of dunes, heathland and plantations. The most impressive natural phenomenon in this region is the Råbjerg Mile, a 41m/135ft high shifting dune which moves annually a distance of 8-10m/26-33ft to the east, burying any vegetation in its wake; the dune is legally protected. There are two paths leading to the dune; one starts from the entrance to the Bunken campsite, the other from a small picnic area near Råbjergvej.
