Filsø Ellipsen — Attraction in Varde Municipality

Filsø near Henne Strand on the west coast of Jutland was once one of Denmark's largest lakes, but was drained in various projects between 1852 and 1951 to create agricultural land on the poor coastline.

In 2011, Aage V. Jensen's NaturFond bought the area to bring it back to its natural state, and recreate the large lake as a recreational area for the joy and benefit of tourists and residents.

visitor site consists of an access road, a communication building, a landscape bridge and a parking space for the visitors. The road goes through protected and spectacular nature to the parking lot and the large ellipse, which in a single form both grabs the communication building and unfolds the large horizon that the water mirror creates.

From the bridge you can experience Filsø and the vast landscape, where you can in one and the same panning movement get very close to the water level and the area's unique nature.

The elliptical shape emphasizes the unifying, continuous movement through the area from arrival and back. It is equipped with a solid seat edge that allows you to take a break and...

This is a wonderful place if you go around the temperature of 20-28 Celsius. There is a lot of wind to Cool you off, beautiful and peaceful sight and walking through the nature and you can walk all the other way to the other side. There is a building with several picnic tables and restroom and also picnic table at the parking lot. Definitely enjoyed my time here.

Edit: reaching the handicap accessible observation tower is almost inaccessible for them as you will go through a rocky wobbly path for at least 20-30 minutes. You can get information and including on how to get there at my review of the peterholmtarnet tower on Google.

I think this road needs to be more smooth for them or build a tower much closer to the...

Et fint sted til en lille hyggelig gåtur. Det er et stort plus at der er en fast asfalteret belægning fra to handikap parkeringspladser og hele vejen rundt langs Elipsebroen. Dette gør det muligt for en kørestol bruger selv at køre rundt langs broen, til og fra bilen, samt toiletterne og et par bænke.

Toiletterne er også fine, men det er rigtig synd at folk ikke passer på dem. Da vi var forbi var der flere af toiletterne hvor der lugtede af tis, der var ikke skyllet ud og Generalt var toiletterne ikke særlig indbydende. Min datter og min kæreste ville hellere holde sig til at vi kom hjem end at bruge så ulækre toiletter. bedre opsyn med toiletterne ville være godt! (dog er det jo folkene der bruger dem, der burde tænke sig om og efterlade dem som de selv vil modtage dem.)

På grund af tilstanden af toiletterne kan jeg ikke give 5 stjerner, da der ikke var et eneste toilet som var bare nogenlunde rent. Bedre opsyn / oftere rengøring af toiletterne ville være en forbedring. samt en asfalteret sti fra Elipsebroen, til handikap parkeringspladserne og til det handikap-/kørestolsvenlige udkigstårn ville være en skøn forbedring.

Men det er klart...
