Rold Skov

Forest · Denmark

Denmark's second-largest forest, 8,000 hectares of beech and heath in Himmerland south of Aalborg. The gnarled, wind-bent beeches of Troldeskoven ("Trolls' Forest") are over 300 years old and turn deep copper through October, while the heather hills of neighboring Rebild Bakker redden alongside them.

Best for: a slow walk through ancient beechwood
