Travel Guide
Hjørring
Discover medieval churches, public art and superb shopping in the town. Then explore a countryside made up of low-lying hills, rivers and woodland.

Vacations in Hjørring offer valuable insights into the ancient history and culture of Denmark’s Vendsyssel region. At churches and museums learn about the origins of one of the nation’s oldest market towns. Enjoy the modern-day lifestyle of Hjørring at shopping precincts and café-lined squares. Explore the glorious countryside of Nordjylland, Denmark’s northernmost area.

Stroll along Nørregade, the town’s oldest neighborhood, to visit the well-preserved medieval sites of St. Catharinæ Church, St. Hans Church and St. Olai Church. Elegant buildings surround Axeltorv square, a market location since the Middle Ages. Find everything from pubs and restaurants to fashion outlets and jewelers on Strømgade. Sit at a pavement café on Springvandsplads and admire Claes Hake’s Solringen sculpture, one of 250 public art pieces around town.

Have fun visiting Håndværkernes Hus, an active handicraft workshop with displays of typical tools and equipment. Artifacts from as far back as the Stone Age are showcased at Vendsyssel History Museum, which also has a garden with herbs and medicinal plants. Browse rotating contemporary art expositions at Vendsyssel Kunstmuseum and see its giant animal sculptures. Concerts, lectures and theater productions take place at Vendsyssel Teater.

Take advantage of abundant outdoor attractions, such as Folkeparken public park, a short walk from the town center. Views from the 226-foot-tall (69-meter) observation tower atop Hjørring Bjerge hilltop stretch for miles. Spot colorful birdlife and hike amid coniferous and deciduous forests at Bagterp Plantage.

Sindal is in an area of astounding natural beauty, a 15-minute drive east of Hjørring. Go canoeing, camping and fishing on the Uggerby Å river. Hike, pick berries and hunt for mushrooms in the Tolne Skov and Tolne Bakker forests. To the west, Skallerup Seaside Resort has a farm, water park, wellness center and swimming pools.

Reach Hjørring by flying to Aalborg Airport and catching a bus and train from there. Use the local bus network to reach other towns of North Denmark. Alternatively, travel via quiet countryside roads by bike or rented car.

"Dinner and breakfast was excellent. Elevator not function was optimal in combination with the available steel stairs. It was very noisy during the night. Normally in the summer floor heating should be shut off."
