Log Text: From Maribo follow road 289 to Birket. In Birket turn right to Ravnsby. Before entering Ravnsby turn left following Glentehøj signposts. Parking space available. How we managed to miss this one I don't know, but remember this is Denmark: at that parking place you will see one information sign, from there feel free to find the way yourself, but no further help will be given. Might have been distracted by the Dodekaliten...

Upon leaving the wood the site is on the right side of the road. There is a heritage sign. No official parking place, but ample room for parking.
Nice place to visit, although the site is a bit ruinous.

Log Text: Lovely restored passage grave, easy to find, good parking place. From Nykøbing take the busy road to Sjællands Odde. Turn right just after the village of Nyrup on the Troldhøjvej. Don't drive too hard as you will easily overshoot this road.
The passage grave was built around 3200 BC and is the largest on the island of Zealand. It was first investigated in 1909 and it was excellently restored in 2003 by the National Museum of Denmark.

A relatively unknown passage grave on Møn, really worth a visit.
A new info panel tells that this passage grave had a special limestone shell to keep out water. From experience I can tell this is no longer working...

Log Text: Follow road 297 from Frejlev to Nykøbing Falster. First you get a turn to the left to Flintinge, ignore this, then turn right at the next opportunity, in the direction of Nagelsti. After about 100 meters you can see the dolmen in the field at the right (south) side. No obvious footpath or parking place but the road is very quiet.

Martofte Estershøj Jættestue submitted by holger_rix on 3rd Aug 2011. Jættestue (Passage Grave) near Odense
Round Barrow with enclosed Passage Grave on a hilltop near the baltic coastline.
The tomb was excavated in 1880.
They found remains of 10 skeletons, especially the heads, probably everyone in the
chamber in a sitting position.

Log Text: On road 315 from Kerteminde to Fyns Hoved turn right in Martofte into the Søvej. After 300 meter the road bends to the right. On the left side you will find a destroyed information board and a unpaved road. No real parking place. Walk a hundred meters, then turn right at a still existing sign. After 200 meters the site is on your left, across the fields.
Not easy to reach in the summer through the fields, a bit overgrown. You would expect that this Jaettestue and Marhøj one would be intervisible, but buildings and trees seem to be in the way.

Mårhøj Jættestue submitted by holger_rix on 2nd Aug 2011. One of the finest examples of the well preserved danish passage graves.
The biggest tomb of the island Fyn.
The beautiful passage grave Mårhøj lies on a natural hill and
therefore looks extra impressive. The 10 m long and about 2 m wide tomb
was excavated in 1868 by the local farm owner Sun.
He found some human bones and an amber bead as the only
remains of Neolithic burials.
In the corridor stood an urn with burnt bones, but it must have been
from the Late Bronze Age or per...

Log Text: Easy to find, signposted from road 315 Kerteminde to Fyns Hoved. Visible from that road too. Good parking places available. Marvellous site, well worth a detour. After leaving the 315 be sure to look also at the right side. You can clearly see the Esterhøj Jaettestue there (but not from the parking place). Weird how high the entrance is.

Log Text: From Spodsbjerg follow cycling route 81. After leaving the coast and after a right turn look for an unpaved road on your left. Follow that road for 500 meters and the monument is on your left side. There is a heritage sign.
In July 2015 it was impossible to reach the site as it was surrounded by some very thick unyielding crop.
