I wanted to check out this Hundested Sandskulptur Festival for a long while, but there was always something else that popped out. But as the festival was slowly coming to an end, I had to go! And that was also an excellent excuse for a biking trip – the September weather right now is just perfect for that!
Hundested Sandskulptur Festival
The festival was pretty cool, though I thought it would be a little bit bigger. However, when I started to think that all those sculptures have been standing in the rain/ sand/ wind for the last 4 months, I was really impressed! Not to mention they are really huge! So if you have some time next weekend, check it out!
If you are interested, check it out, you have time until 18th September. The entrance fee is 45kr for an adult, and you can enter the festival throughout the whole day. If you want more information go to the website under this link.
Hundested beach
Nearby the festival area, there is a really nice sandy beach where we took a break and actually jumped into the water! And yes, it was really cold, but after a while, we just got used to it and had a lot of fun swimming around. And as the sun was shining, we dried up in a blink of an eye 😉
How to get there
It is easiest to get there by car; there are plenty of places to park. Alternatively, you can take the local train all the way to Hundested.
We opted for the more adventurous route: To get there, we took a train from Herlev to Frederikssund St. and then biked to Hundested, where the festival is taking place. On the way back, we chose a road to Hillerød St., where I took a train to Lyngby. The road was not hard, it was ~60km, and there were many great sights along the way!
