It is the path along which the sun and the planets of the solar system are distributed at distances that reflect their distance in the universe. The sandy Vejlby Klit Beach stretches along the seashore, where you can walk and relax by the water in the summer. The biggest attractions of the coast are the Klif Bovbjerg and the Bovbjerg Lighthouse, which are located a short distance from Lemvig.
