Bittern call and bell frog concert

Agersøs seven square kilometers are quite flat - the island's highest point is just 12 meters above sea level. In contrast, visitors can get high on the beautiful nature when hiking or cycling on Agersø.

A third of the island is made up of salt marshes and wetlands that provide ideal breeding conditions for a wealth of birds and other animals.
Among other things, Denmark's largest gull, the black-backed gull, breeds on Helholm and Egholm, but there are also colonies of gulls, terns and eider ducksand the coast is also home to great crested grebe, snipe, black grouse and many other birds.

Agersø is also a regular stopping point for a large number of migrating birds of prey. You may also be lucky enough to hear the call of the bittern from the wetlands or listen to the concert of the rare bell frog in May/June.

Throughout the year you can make your way past Agersø Nature Center, which regularly organizes activities for the whole family. You can among many other things go on a fossil hunt, find food in nature, take a closer look at the islands bird life or try to catch a flatfish.

In general Agersø offers great fishing along the coasts, where especially the sea trout fishermen frolic but also garfish, turbot and other flatfish can find their way to the fishing net.
