Planet trail Lemvig

The Planet Trail stretches for 12 kilometers along the coast from Vesterbjerg to Gjellerodde, featuring bronze models of planets mounted on granite pedestals.

The trail was established to represent the solar system with precise distance calculations, using a scale ratio of 1 to 1 billion for spatial relationships.

Local schools integrate the Planet Trail into their science curriculum, enabling students to understand astronomical concepts through physical movement and observation.

Visitors can access detailed information about the solar system models and trail layout at the Lemvig tourist office before starting their educational walk.

The path includes representations of Halley's comet and various asteroids alongside the main planetary models, enhancing the astronomical learning experience.
