Dråby is a small village a short way north of Ebeltoft on the Djursland peninsula in East Jutland. The community gathers around the whitewashed Dråby Church, whose broad medieval walls and late-medieval frescoes speak of the area's long history. Around the church stretches a gently rolling landscape of fields, hedgerows and woodland edges that slopes down toward Ebeltoft Bay and the Kattegat. The area offers a calm alternative to the busy market town of Ebeltoft, which lies close by with its cobbled old quarter and harbour. Here you can wander quiet gravel lanes, breathe the country air and experience a Denmark where time moves more slowly. With Mols Bjerge National Park and the beaches of Djursland within easy reach, Dråby makes a fine base for exploring the peninsula's nature, coastline and cultural heritage at a relaxed pace, in any season.
