The other day I met this little bull when I was walking at the Path of the Gods.

End of Eurorando 2011 in Denmark
Yesterday ended Eurorando 2011 in the eastern part of Denmark with 7 walks all ending at the Large Spring at Byparken in Roskilde. The walks was between 4 and 26 km. I participated in one of them, 13 km at Skjoldungestien from Lejre to Roskilde. That was a very fine walk.
Water is the theme for this Eurorando, symbolising life and movement. Water from many part of Europe will be collected and brought to Andalusia, to be united at the end of Eurorando 2011 later this year.
At the walk Lavringe Stream was crossed – there was much water in it. As seen at the last photo.
At the first photo you see Lis Nielsen, President of the European Ramblers Association, and Torben Christensen, Chairman of the Danish Ramblers Association, filling a bottle with water from the Large Spring.

Tornhøj at the Path of the Gods
Yesterdays photo was a road with a church far away, and I said that it had something to do with “The Path of the Gods”. Tornhøj at todays photo is connected to that path and is placed a few meters from the road between Ramsømagle and Øster Syv.
Not easy to understand, but the path is a 64 km long hikingroute from Køge Bugt to Isefjorden (two danish coasts). In danish the path is called “Gudernes Stræde”. There are 80 signposts with text at the path or nearby.
Tornhøj – says the text – is 3500 years old and a Big Farmer was buried here. Nearby was other graves and this part of the path has been a holy place for 5000 years.
Gudernes Stræde has it own homepage in Danish.
You will find an interactive map (danish: kort) here.
At this map you will see that path through Gadstrup, Ramsømagle and Østersyv, and if you look carefully between the last two places you will find Tornhøj.
Later I shall visit other places at the path.
Nordic Walking in Gadstrup

They practice Nordic Walking (Danish: Stavgang), enjoy the walkings, the fresh air and “talk and walk”. They celebrate birthsdays together. The agespan is nearly 20 years – from 60 to 78.
The second photo is the beginning of todays walk, which last 1-2 hours.
