DENMARK
SEALAND, LOLLAND, FALSTER AND MON
Verdant countryside, excellent beaches, and vast tracts of woodland characterize Sealand, Lolland, Falster, and Møn. Perfect for active holidays, with fine opportunities for golfing, angling, swimming, yachting, and walking. And don't miss Møns Klint, the towering limestone cliffs overlooking the Baltic. - For those with an interest in architecture, the area offers historic cathedrals and small country churches with some of the oldest frescoes in Northern Europe.
