Ejer Bavnehøj, Summit in Skanderborg Municipality, Denmark
The natural elevation reaches 170.35 meters above sea level, making it the third-highest point in Denmark without human-made structures.
The site served as a strategic beacon location where signal fires alerted military forces and local populations about approaching enemy threats.
A 13-meter tower constructed in 1924 stands at the summit to commemorate the reunification of southern Jutland with Denmark after World War I.
The summit features wheelchair accessibility and connects to a 1.5-kilometer hiking trail that leads to neighboring Møllehøj peak.
The name Bavnehøj derives from Old Norse, combining 'bavne' meaning beacon and 'høj' meaning hill, reflecting its historical function.
