Visit Faaborg

Card

Winter is coming! But before then, it's time for fall colors, game stew and good wines.

Vinbanken and Trente Mølle invite you to a real autumn event on 15/10 from 3pm to 6pm.

We start with a walk in the forest at Trente Mølle, where the nature guide tells us about autumn in nature, which is put in the bank until next spring and closes down for the winter.

Back by the fire at Trente Mølle, we prepare together a delicious meal with seasonal ingredients and game.

Autumn food belongs to red wine. That's why Vinbanken Faaborg comes by with three tastings of wines that match the menu.

Finally, there is an opportunity to make a good deal and buy the introduced wines home with you.

Game, wine and hiking

As an intro to tonight's dishes, Trente Mølle's nature guide tells us about the ingredients and their wonderful life in nature. Did you know, for example, that the hake is the large-toothed cousin of cod, which can spawn up to 7 million eggs?

Bonfire, NADA and Full Moon

Person

Together we explore darkness, through our senses, and welcome it, as part of the cycle of year and life. The winter months associate many with gloom and fear, as we can feel vulnerable in the dark. Darkness invites contemplation and a slowness. Through the exercise, participants are invited to stay in the dark, and from a safe place, to go to observe and experience the darkness through the senses.

Did you know that darkness is a prerequisite for the body to form the sleep hormone melatonin, which protects us from depression?

Through the darkness, we can see the light.

Lace up the hiking boots and let the pace slow down. \
With the South Funen Archipelago in the front yard and Svanninge Bakker in the back garden lies Faaborg,\
one of Denmark's oldest and most beautiful market towns. But Faaborg area is more than Funen's hollyhock. Because when May is at its peak, Lilac Land unfolds with a landscape that smells of spring and is swathed in shades of purple. \
On this 2-day tour of South Funen you will visit Syrenlandet and not least Geopark The South Funen Archipelago. With Arreskov lake, Håstrup Mountains and Hell's Cave, among others. \
\
This is an easy hike. You can walk many hours every day, but there is room to take several breaks along the way so that everyone can join — both those who walk fast and those who take the time. There is full catering and good beds along the way. \
\
**DAY 1 (May 13)//Welcome to Syrenland**\
Venue Faaborg at 09:00\
From the meeting point at the port in Faaborg — there is a shared transport to Håstrup, from where our hike begins. \
Håstrup is popularly called Denmark's only mountain town — located in the middle of the South Funen mountain range. \
\
From Håstrup the tour goes over the Håstrup mountains and we climb the viewpoints Dronningeten and Trebjerg. \
We enjoy lunch at Trente Mølle. \
Now we are in the center of the Syrenland. It is in the area around Ny Stenderup and Gl. Stenderup that we will be surrounded by lilac fences and the heavy scent. \
We cross the road and walk north and east of Arreskov Lake, and come on the way to Corinth, passing Arreskov Castle, among other places. There's almost a state guarantee to experience sea eagles

On the stretch. \
Today's walk ends in Corinth. In Corinth we will be accommodated in the newly renovated part of the Corinth Inn. The inn is the inn of the whole city, and after many years of disrepair - today can welcome us. We get the history of the inn — and a tour of the many plans and projects that the many enthusiasts and volunteers have for the building in the coming years. \
Dinner and fun. \

The area abounds with nature and cultural history that will be told. How did Arreskov Lake come to be, what was hidden in the hellhole and why does Lerbjerg ever shake?

For the Ascension it is Geopark days.

At this time of year, nature is perhaps at its most abundant. And that's what we're going to experience.

The tour starts at Bittenhus (Nakkebølefjord) and goes from here in glass canoes (they are just transparent) towards Svelmø. From the canoes we can observe life both above and below the water and along the way tell Trente Mølle's nature guide about the place, nature and culture.

Once at Svelmø we pick up and prepare a delicious meal of the beach's herbs, we catch crabs for beach crab bisque and who knows, maybe we'll be lucky enough to be able to add a hornfish to the menu.

After a pleasant meal, the trip goes back to Bittenhus.

**Registration: ** No later than 12/5 at 12 p.m.

**Hosts: ** Reinholdt Hansen, Christian Heller. Nature supervisors at Trente Mølle Nature School

We walk in silence at sunset in the beautiful nature in and around Svanninge Bjerge. Here we “bathe” in the special atmosphere of nature just before, during and after sunset. We sense the darkness, the play of colors and the nature that calms down.

Along the way, we sit down and look at nature as it takes off in the twilight. Maybe the sun colors the sky red. You are guided to sharpen your attention to what you sense and what it brings to life in you. After that, the experience is expressed when you write a creative text. With you home, you get an immortalized moment in the form of a poem, a tale or a mood picture.

Bring: Warm clothes, blanket/mat to sit on, notebook/paper, pencil and possibly a cup of hot drink.

Hiking at sunset

We walk in silence at sunrise in the beautiful nature in and around Svanninge Mountains. Here we “bathe” in the special atmosphere of nature just before, during and after sunrise. Feel the special atmosphere at dawn — where colors, shapes and light show up again. An intense sensory experience that calls for joy, inner silence and wonder.

Along the way, we sit down and look at nature at sunrise. You are guided to sharpen your attention to what you sense and what it brings to life in you.

Hiking at Sunrise

Spring is in full swing and soon it's time for rosé on the terrace, but what's better than rosé, it's rosé with delicious fish dishes, it's best if the fish is prepared under the open sky and the rosé is good.

At the beautiful Nakkebølefjord we cook together a delicious bonfire meal with fish and other good things from the sea. Think dishes like plank-fried flounder, beach crab bisque, crispy shrimp cocktail with wild herbs and trout roe.

The food is prepared under the expert guidance of Trente Mølle's nature guides who also tell about the amazing life of marine animals along the way.

We end with a joint meal, where Vinbanken talks about and serves tastings of three rosés, from their large selection.
