Holiday apartment in Solrød – Discover the coast and nature

The six-kilometre-long coast at Solrød Strandpark consists mostly of wide sandy beaches with dunes and child-friendly bathing conditions. There are opportunities here for nature experiences, swimming and sailing. Solrød Strand beach can be reached, among other ways, via Østre Strandvej. Several jetties lead across the lagoon lakes to Staunings Ø. During the birds’ breeding season, from 1 April to 31 August, access to the southern tip of Staunings Ø is prohibited.

Nature and coast

A distinctive natural site is Trylleskoven. The protected woodland, with its gnarled pine trees, includes a beach, a fire pit and a nature playground. Trylleskoven was planted at the end of the 19th century. The beach at Trylleskoven is particularly child-friendly because of its wide sandy beach and shallow water.

Karlstrup Skov og Kalkgrav has paths along the lake and offers opportunities for picnicking and fishing. Visitors can also search for fossils in Karlstrup Kalkgrav. Here, nature observation, exercise and an unusual insight into the geological past come together by the lake.

History and culture

Solrød Landsby is one of the oldest villages in Solrød Municipality. The eight Bronze Age burial mounds north of the village and archaeological finds point back several thousand years. The cultural-historical village environment has mainly been preserved around Solrød Byvej; old elongated farmhouses and younger houses from the cooperative era stand side by side there.

The foundations of today’s Solrød Kirke date back to a stone church built in the 12th century. A museum regarded as “Denmark’s smallest museum” is located in a transformer tower from 1944. Using old pictures and films, it presents the history of Solrød Strand.

Karlstrup Kirke is a small, well-preserved medieval church on a hill beside Karlstrup Møllebæk. It was built as part of a manor that developed into a castle complex and disappeared more than 600 years ago. The church is open to visitors every day; there, visitors can find peace and discover the stories associated with it.
