The Isthmus at Lyngs – Nature’s Connection
The isthmus connecting Thy and Thyholm was formed after the Ice Age through land uplift and gravel deposits from Nissum Bredning. A series of groynes protect the narrow land from erosion by the fjord. The area is botanically rich, with sea lavender, beach pea, and sea mustard along the shore, and dry grasslands featuring species like field forget-me-not, soft brome, and saxifrage. Rare plants such as knotted pearlwort and small bedstraw grow in moist depressions.
