Walking
From the main visitor hubs in the central part of Mols Bjerge, trails meander through heathland and open hillsides, with the rounded peaks of Trehøje visible from afar. Expect a moderately challenging hike, typically 30–60 minutes one way depending on your starting point. The paths traverse open countryside; there are no entry fees, and access is free year-round. Those arriving by car will find parking areas on the outskirts of the park, but there is no parking at the foot of Trehøje itself. Bring sturdy footwear and be prepared for exposed, windy conditions on the summit.

From there, reach the summit via well-marked footpaths for the final stretch.
