... AND THE LIGHT SUDDENLY POURS IN

"And the light suddenly pours in..." - it's how Alberte sings in "Lyse Nætter". The light has returned and winter is coming to an end.

🌷

Winter has been long and gray, and at times it has been hard to see its end. The gray, rainy weather has made it feel a bit longer than usual. We haven't seen many of those frost-clear days with snow and a high, blue sky this winter, and unfortunately not much ice either.

At this time of year we long even more for spring and the light, because on days like these we can wake up to the light and the spring that is sprouting up everywhere.

We can finally enjoy spring and although it's still cold, it is now, close to the equinox, that we should get out into nature and make the most of the bright half of the year.

We look forward to the forest soon looking like this:

Get off to a great start for the outdoor season

To fully enjoy spring, it's important to dress well. Put on warm, windproof clothing, and remember a windproof jacket, gloves, a hat, and possibly a mat to sit on the cold ground. Even when the sun is shining, the air can still be chilly, so be careful not to catch a spring cold.

🌱

Here are some great ways to kickstart the outdoor season:

Spring picnic

Bring family and friends for a picnic in the forest, park, or on the beach. Pack a simple picnic basket with warm drinks, and maybe prepare a small fire with tinder blocks and sausages. It's fun to gather twigs and get the flames going, and it warms you up nicely on a cool spring day. Don't forget marshmallows – both kids and adults love them!

Bike ride or hike

Explore new areas on a bike ride or hike. Denmark has plenty of beautiful routes, perfect for a day trip. Try moving away from the most well-known paths and experience nature up close.

Spring sea swim

Invite a friend or the kids to join you for a sea swim. Choose a calm day and prepare them for the fact that the water is still icy, even if the weather looks mild. Spring is actually a good time to start sea swimming, as the light is back and the water is clear and clean. The experience is cozier when you do it together – and there's a better chance they'll want to continue winter swimming.

Throw stones into the water, laugh and relax afterwards, and bring warm drinks in a thermos.

Remember to dress properly

The spring sun can be fickle, and it's often colder than it looks. Dress in layers so you can take some off if it gets warm. Remember, there's no bad weather – only the wrong clothing.

We hope you have many lovely moments in nature this Easter! If you need inspiration for clothing for all ages and outings, you know where to find us.

Get inspired here,

Warm nature greetings,
