Sillerslev

Sillerslev is a small, quiet fishing hamlet on the east coast of the island of Mors, where land meets the Limfjord in one of Denmark's loveliest inland-sea landscapes. The sheltered marina and fishing harbour form the heart of the village, and from here a stony shore and low meadows stretch out, well known among anglers for sea trout and flatfish throughout the year. Behind the harbour lies Sillerslev Kær, a bird-rich wetland where terns and wading birds rest. The scenery is open and windswept, with broad views across the fjord towards Salling on the far shore. The village itself is tiny and peaceful, with scattered houses and a strong tradition of fishing and outdoor life. Sillerslev is a favourite for kayakers, swimmers and anyone seeking quiet away from the tourist crowds. From here, the hilly nature of Mors, cosy villages and the clay-cliff coast are all close by.
