Marsk Tower, Skærbæk

Marsk Tower

When you have climbed 146 steps and landed on the lookout platform, you are thus standing 36 meters above sea level. Here there is ample opportunity to experience how sky and sea merge with the horizon. This gives a completely unique perspective on the otherwise immediately flat marsh.

When the Danish weather is, as we love it most, clear and sunny, you can enjoy the view all the way to Ribe, Herring and Rømø!

Marsh Tower is a must when you have to experience Southern Jutland.

Take the trip up to the new landmark for the marsh and experience how the horizon is both erased and expanded at the same time. Here you get a unique chance to experience the flat marsh and see as far as the eye can see.
