Kongens Kær wetlands

The Kongens Kær wetland on the western outskirts of Vejle is a popular destination. The unique wetland along with the lake Knabberup Sø, covering an area of 100 hectares, can be accessed via new and ancient pathways. An observation deck allows you to enjoy the magnificent valley and birdlife. 

The white-tailed eagle (aka the Sea Eagle) apparently also favours Kongens Kær. A frequent visitor to the wetland, the otherwise shy bird of pray is a rare sight in Denmark or anywhere else in Europe. And its presence is testimony to the very rich diversity of wildlife in the area. 

There are ample facilities for picnicking at tables and benches in Kongens Kær – a perfect choice for a luncheon under open skies.

You can access Kongens Kær via the car park by Ribe Landevej.
