Plejerup is the access road to Malergården, the well-preserved artists’ home of the Swane family. Malergården lies between two drained fjords; the landscape inspired the Swane family of painters. For culture enthusiasts, the house combines family history with a specific landscape context, giving the trip a clear cultural point of interest.

Malergården: Rooms and garden

Visitors can explore the studio, living rooms, rooms on the first floor and the Billedskolen at Malergården. This selection makes the visit tangible: it includes several named areas rather than just the artists’ home as a whole. The studio and living rooms offer different points of interest; the rooms on the first floor and the Billedskolen are also among the areas open to visitors. Those interested in the artists’ home can focus on the house and its different rooms.

The grounds of Malergården include a garden with dahlia beds, boxwood hedges, apple orchards and a viewpoint. The garden adds another dimension to the interiors: unlike inside the house, the grounds are shaped by planting and the viewpoint. These named features make the design tangible and offer another perspective on Malergården, alongside its family history and the rooms of the artists’ home.

Walks, cycle rides and hiking

Suggestions for walks and cycle rides are available for the part of Lammefjord that still contains water. Check the latest route details before setting out, as they may change. Another option is the Grevinge–Plejerup–Prejlerup circular walk: it is 19 km long, is not signposted and passes through a dead-ice landscape with many small hills and water-filled hollows. Its length provides a specific planning reference; because it is not signposted, check the route before setting out.

When choosing between the types of tours, consider how you want to get around: both walks and cycle rides are suggested for Lammefjord, while the Grevinge–Plejerup–Prejlerup circuit is a hike. If you are planning to walk, you can choose between the suggestions around Lammefjord and the 19 km circuit. Cycling is also explicitly included among the Lammefjord suggestions.

Go out on the water independently

KajakOasen rents out kayaks, canoes and SUP boards for independent outings. What all three options have in common is that you can use them independently; the choice is about the equipment for your time on the water. KajakOasen is located at Strandly 21 in Plejerup, 4571 Grevinge. Confirm the address before travelling.

The different types of outings involve different planning considerations. For the hike, its length and lack of signposting are important reference points; around Lammefjord, cycle rides extend the options beyond walks. KajakOasen offers independent outings on the water and three types of equipment. If you choose first based on the activity you want, you can then check the relevant route details or booking terms.
