  05/05/2025 Bo Nielsen

  In Denmark, we can choose from many beautiful hiking routes when we feel like lacing up our hiking boots. However, seasoned hiker Bo Nielsen from Ørbæk on Funen believes that there is a particularly good reason to go to Viborg to participate in the traditional Haervejsmarch once a year.
