In just 3 weeks I have traveled Denmark. My journey it is clockwise made, which means that I first climbed the west coast to the northern tip of the country is 2330 kilometres, then down by the east coast to Copenhagen where I’ll come in the next few days. The first part was by far the most interesting by the discovery of wild zones by crossing paths away from any traffic, by crossing dunes richly decorated with dry grass, of heathers in colors varying of the brown in the purple, the small conifers, or the shrubs thorny kind. Small villages where houses alone, brown and roofs were scattered. The fact that they seemed empty gave a particular aspect to the region. It is also an opportunity to find a lot of migratory birds taking a real pleasure to watch them. It also made me cross areas of forests where I found myself completely alone.

Reaching the northern tip, then I must to turn back, what I have done by the other side, which brings no charm to the journey. But on the other hand I found difficult situations with the first rain, running over long lines, fighting for 3 days against an east wind that it stopped me almost on the spot and meet the beginnings of knee tendonitis . Now, the way to Copenhagen and Sweden that I should touch the next weeks.
