Holiday base between Ebeltoft and Mols Bjerge
DCU-Camping Ebeltoft – Mols sits in rolling countryside just outside the harbour town of Ebeltoft, within easy reach of both the bay and Mols Bjerge National Park. Terraced pitches step gently down the hillside, giving many campers a glimpse of fields, forest edges or distant water. The atmosphere is that of a classic Danish holiday park: relaxed, sociable and geared toward families who want comfort without losing the feel of being outdoors. The campsite caters to a wide range of setups, from traditional tents and caravans to campervans, rental cabins and mobile homes. Grassy pitches are generally sheltered by hedges or trees, offering a bit of privacy even when the site is busy. Power connections are available on most touring spots, and gravel access roads keep things practical in wet weather.Heated pool, play zones and communal life
One of the centrepieces is the heated outdoor swimming pool, complete with a curving waterslide and a shallow paddling area for younger children. On warm days the pool deck becomes the social heart of the campsite, with sun loungers, splashing kids and parents chatting at the edges. Nearby, large inflatable jumping pillows, climbing structures and play towers give children space to burn off energy from morning to evening. Scattered across the grounds are small pockets for casual sports and games: a football area, table tennis tables, outdoor chess and petanque. Covered barbecue terraces and shared seating areas encourage leisurely meals, often stretching into the long Nordic evenings. Service buildings provide kitchens, dishwashing areas and modern sanitary facilities that are designed to handle peak holiday crowds.Cabins and comfort for all seasons
For travellers who prefer a solid roof, the campsite offers several categories of cabins, from simple budget models to more fully equipped units with their own bathrooms and terraces. Even the smaller cabins usually come with basic kitchen facilities and outdoor seating, making them a practical choice for shoulder-season stays when nights can be cool. Mobile homes and larger cabins are popular with extended families or small groups. These units often sit in slightly elevated positions, giving a pleasant outlook over the site. Whichever accommodation you choose, you still have access to all on-site activities and shared facilities, making it easy for mixed-age groups to holiday together without compromising on comfort.Gateway to coastal walks and national park trails
Staying here places you close to some of East Jutland’s most appealing landscapes. Mols Bjerge National Park lies just inland, with marked trails leading over rounded hills, heather-covered ridges and old grazing land. Many visitors bring or rent bicycles to explore quiet rural roads, viewpoints such as Trehøje and the shoreline around Ebeltoft Vig. Closer to the campsite, gentle walks lead through farmland and small woods, and there are several beaches around Ebeltoft suitable for swimming in summer. The setting makes the campsite an attractive base for anyone who wants the convenience of full facilities while still spending full days outdoors.Excursions, culture and family attractions
Ebeltoft itself is a short trip away, with cobbled lanes, half-timbered houses and a working wooden warship at the Fregatten Jylland museum. Glass enthusiasts can visit the Glasmuseet Ebeltoft, while food lovers can seek out local breweries and ice-cream stalls along the waterfront. Beyond town, a string of major attractions lies within day-trip range: family amusement at Djurs Sommerland, animals at Ree Park Safari and Scandinavian Wildlife Park, and marine life at the Kattegatcentret. For an urban contrast, Aarhus is close enough for a cultural day out, with its art museum, open-air town museum and dense cluster of cafés and shops. Returning to camp in the evening, the combination of fresh air, facilities and quiet countryside rounds off the experience.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
