Brokholm Lake and Nature Centre
Brokholm Lake – a landscape reborn
Once drained for agriculture, Brokholm Lake was restored in 1999. Today, it’s a vibrant wetland teeming with birdlife, offering a birdwatching tower and nature activities for all ages. The nature center hosts events and school programs throughout the year.
Brokholm Lake – Nature Returns
In the 1780s, the area was drained, but in 1999 the pumps were stopped, and Brokholm Lake re-emerged as a scenic wetland of about 100 hectares. The former pump house is now a birdwatching tower, as rich birdlife returned with the water. The area is open to all – bring your binoculars!
At Brokholm Nature Center, you can join guided nature activities. The center is also available for school camps.
Facilities include an accessible toilet, barbecue area, fire shelter, and a wheelchair-friendly path to the lake.
Parking: Vejsmarksvej 15.
