Local tips
- Bring your own food and drinks, as there are no cafés or kiosks at Trebjerg; the hill is ideal for simple picnics with views over fields and sea.
- Wear sturdy shoes: the final approach includes grassy and sometimes uneven sections that can be muddy or slippery after rain.
- Aim for clear days around morning or late afternoon to enjoy the most atmospheric light over the South Funen Archipelago.
- In windy or cool weather, pack an extra layer; the exposed summit can feel noticeably colder than the surrounding lowlands.
- Use marked trails where available to respect farmland boundaries and protect the delicate grassland on the slopes.

Getting There
-
Car from central Faaborg
From central Faaborg, driving to Trebjerg typically takes around 10–15 minutes, using local country roads through the hilly landscape. There is a small, near-natural parking area close to the hill where parking is free, but space is limited at busy times and the surface can be uneven grass or gravel. No parking fees or permits are required.
-
Bicycle from Faaborg area
Cyclists can reach Trebjerg from Faaborg in about 25–40 minutes, depending on pace and the specific route chosen through local roads. The terrain is rolling with some noticeable short climbs near the hills, so gears and basic fitness are helpful. There are no dedicated bike lanes on all stretches, so be prepared to share narrow rural roads with local traffic.
-
Regional bus plus walking
Regional buses connect Faaborg with nearby villages in the hilly area; journey times are typically 15–25 minutes from town. Services run less frequently in evenings and on weekends, and exact stops within walking distance of Trebjerg vary by route. From the nearest bus stop you should expect a countryside walk of 20–40 minutes on minor roads and paths to reach the hill, so wear comfortable footwear and check schedules in advance.

High Point of the South Funen Hills
Trebjerg rises gently from the rolling countryside north of Faaborg and claims a place as the third-highest point on the island of Funen. From the outside it looks like a simple, rounded hill, but the summit known as Dronningeudsigten offers a far-reaching panorama that has made it a minor landmark in the South Fyn landscape. Fields, hedgerows and small woodlands ripple out in every direction, with the blue line of the South Funen Archipelago on the horizon. This is classic Danish countryside: not dramatic or extreme, but quietly sculpted by ice-age geology and centuries of small-scale farming. The hill itself forms part of a broader hilly area with marked walking routes, allowing you to string Trebjerg into longer rambles through the region’s soft ridges and valleys.The Story Behind “The Queen’s View”
The name Dronningeudsigten hints at a regal appreciation for the scenery. Local tradition holds that the view from Trebjerg is so fine it would please a queen, and over time the nickname has stuck. Whether or not royalty actually stood here, the title captures the sense of looking out over a well-ordered, almost miniature kingdom of farms, villages and islands. Part of the charm lies in the layered horizons. On clear days, your eye travels from nearby meadows and grazing cattle to distant church towers, forest edges and the scattered isles of South Funen. The modest elevation is enough to lift you above everyday life without ever feeling remote or forbidding.Walking Trails and Quiet Picnic Spots
Marked routes lace the surrounding hills, making Trebjerg a natural waypoint on a longer walk or an easy standalone outing. Paths generally follow farm tracks and grassy trails, with short, steeper sections as you approach the top. Most visitors will find the ascent manageable, though it can feel brisk if you are walking at a fast pace. At the summit and along the slopes you will find informal spots perfect for unfolding a picnic rug. With little built infrastructure, the experience remains simple: sit in the grass, feel the wind across the hill, and watch the light shift over fields and sea. Bring what you need with you, as there are no cafés or formal shelters on the hill itself.Changing Light over Fields and Sea
Trebjerg rewards time and patience. Morning often brings soft, hazy light over the fields, while late afternoon and evening can ignite the sky behind the silhouettes of trees and the distant islands. On days with scattered clouds, the landscape below becomes a moving patchwork of sun and shadow. Birdsong carries up from the surrounding hedgerows, and in the quieter hours you may hear little more than wind in the grass and the distant sounds of farm work. It is an inviting place for photographers, painters or anyone who simply enjoys watching a landscape breathe and change.A Simple Escape Close to Faaborg
Despite its sense of openness, Trebjerg sits close to the coastal town of Faaborg, making it an easy nature escape between moments in town. A near-natural parking area by the hill provides basic access without overwhelming the rural setting, and from there paths lead up through fields towards the summit. Because there is no entrance fee and minimal development, the site remains pleasantly informal. You are free to linger, wander different paths, or simply sit and enjoy the view without structure or schedule. For many, that quiet freedom is exactly what makes Dronningeudsigten feel worthy of its grand name.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
