annathropology visited on 22nd Mar 2023 - their rating: Cond: 5 Amb: 5 Access: 3 Like many sites in Denmark, this requires a drive down a rough path in-between two active farmer's fields, so make sure your car can handle that, alternatively you could walk it. You will have to walk regardless, as the drive-able portion ends and you'll have to walk about 50 meters from there. Additionally, all visitors should know that you will have to walk about 15 meters across a field to reach the two burial mounds (they're kind of like an island in the field), the farthest from the path is the one which is open to enter. Don't worry about trespassing, this is a national historic site BUT please be aware that you may be walking across planted fields, do you best to not trample any young plants. We visited in March and one field was recently harvested sugar beets, so deep mud to traverse but no growing plants, but another was just sprouting DO NOT WALK ON THE SPROUTS. As a farmer that is incredibly frustrating. There will be plenty of space on the 'island' to take pictures from a far to get the whole of the mound in the photo, no need to go into the field. Additionally, there were hunters in the surrounding area so gunshots may be heard, just ensure you wear bright colours. This is an incredible experience, and the reconstruction of the passage grave is very well done!
