Located on the south west coast of Samso island, the small Danish town and port of Kolby Kas, in the Midtjylland region of Denmark, is easy accessible by main road from nearby towns and villages. Located between the Danish mainland of Jutland and Zealand, the region is made up of Samso island along with a number of other smaller islands.
Strawberry picking during June and July is a popular pastime and seems especially popular with French, Welsh and Irish visitors. The region is also well known in Denmark for the early harvest of new potatoes which are considered a delicacy. The first few pounds of the new potatoes harvested usually cost around £100. Also popular with tourists is the village of Ballen and its beaches. Buses which operate around the island serve Kolby Kas and the two ferry terminals at Saelvig and Kolby. The Helgenaes Peninsular, to the north of Kolby Kas, is sometimes visible on clear days.
Ferry services from Kolby Kas depart to the city of Kalundborg on Zealand. At Kolby Kas ferry terminal you can park your car, buy tickets and stretch your legs while you wait for the ferry, and continue your journey by bus or taxi.
The Danish town of Kalundborg is located on the island of Zealand and although it is a modern town there are examples of half timbered houses and pretty cobbled streets. Popular attractions in the town include the five steepled church, Vor Frue Kirke (Our Lady's Church) and Kalundborg Castle where Kings and noblemen used to gather to conduct political discussions in the 14th and 15th centuries. The castle is believed to have been built by King Valdemar Atterdag. The town and its waters are popular with anglers and the many miles of coastline around the peninsulars of Asnaes and Rosnaes provide good opportunities to catch herring, flatfish, sea and rainbow trout, mackerel, garfish, sea perch and grey mullet.
It is thought the town became a settlement in 1170 at the point of a natural harbour that is located at the top of a narrow bay which is known today as Kalundborg Fjord. The 19th century saw the settlement grow and become a significant industrial centre by the middle of the 20th century.
Kalundborg has Denmark's largest deep water harbour and a ferry service to Denmark's second largest city Arhus and the island of Samso.
