Baronens Høj Runddysse View all content for Baronens Høj

Access: Good. You can get within a few yards of the monument by car and enjoy the seaside setting. For road directions to the area, see Frydendal Kro. Continue NW along the 'main' forest road, past Frydendal Øst & Havrekobbel. It's about 5km in total from Frydendal Kro. Stay on this road, and keep eyes open for a right-turn to Nygard. Once you can see the sea, you can also see the runddysse! Visited 3 April 2006 Wow! A wonderfully pretty monument in a beautiful setting - the sea always makes a fantastic life-filled backdrop! An impressively complete kerb remains on this picturesque runddysse, which is built on an 'extra' mound to allow it to sit level on the slope down towards the sea. The centrally placed chamber is exposed, but the mound is complete enough to still mean that the sidestones are largely below the surface. It's topped off with a heavy & shapely capstone . The sun even came out, highlighting the amazing variety of differently coloured kerbstones and turning them into dollymixtures! A favourite!
