The "Sugar" Earth Pools

Walk up to the top of the peninsular. The high ground (10mts above sea level) is the result of 120 years of washing sugar beets that came into the factory from all around Fyn and Jutland. The washed off earth was transported by conveyor belts to the peninsular area and became known as the "Earth Pools". The quantity of earth deposited was the equivalent of 10 olympic sized swimming pools every year! There are over 100 different plants growing on the hill and over 130 different species of birds have been observed. Buck and foxes have also been seen.
