Central Jutland


This striking new building houses the tourist office (and its helpful staff, maps and brochures) and some nicely done local exhibits, including ones on the nature and folklore of the forest.

Restaurants and a couple of small museums are nearby. It's beside the car park at the national park's entrance.
