Hanstholm

The fishing and ferry port of Hanstholm lies 20 km/12.5 mi north of Thisted; there are ferries to the Faroes and other places. The 30m/100ft high lighthouse was built in 1843 and is visible from a considerable distance. In the World War II German troops occupied Hanstholm and the local people were evacuated.

From the town a road along the dunes leads to the resort of Klitmoller (12 km/7 mi).
