Why Himmelbjerget matters
The name means Sky Mountain, which sounds grander than the reality, but the views over the lakes and forests of the Lake District are lovely. A short walk leads to a stone tower and monuments, and boats run across the lakes in summer. It is a classic spot for a picnic and a gentle hike.
