Grejsdalen, Canyon in Vejle Municipality, Denmark.
The Grejsdalen valley stretches one kilometer with forest-covered slopes rising 50 to 70 meters high, featuring natural rock formations throughout the landscape.
The valley formed approximately 18,000 years ago when melting glaciers created the Bøgager Issø lake, which eroded the land after a massive dam break.
The canyon's limestone deposits were extracted to construct early Danish stone churches, including structures in Hornstrup, Hover, and Jelling communities.
Visitors can explore the 16-kilometer Grejsdalssti trail connecting Vejle to Jelling, which passes through the canyon and offers multiple hiking routes.
The Grejs River drops 50 meters across 22 kilometers through the canyon, creating conditions for specialized aquatic insects that require fast-flowing water.
