The beacon of Vejle Fjord
If you have ever had the opportunity to sail around Vejle Fjord, you will definitely recognize the characteristic Træskohage Lighthouse, which is standing proudly amidst the beautiful nature on the northern side of Vejle Fjord. The 13-metre-high lighthouse was built in 1904, but has been renovated in the last couple of years and looks as good as new, thanks to local enthusiasts. The lighthouse is open for the public. When visiting you have the opportunity to climb the stairs and enjoy the beautiful view from the balcony. Træskohage lies on a headland, which makes it possible for you to see most of the fjord and all the way to the island of Funen. By the lighthouse lies a small beach, were you to go for a swim.

Træskohage Lighthouse lies near the popular hotel, Hotel Vejlefjord, which offers spa and wellness treatments of high quality.
