Tryggevælde Å

Tryggevælde Å flows northward for 35 kilometers through a flat moraine landscape before reaching Køge Bugt, covering 300 square kilometers of eastern Zealand.

The meadows surrounding Tryggevælde Å have supported livestock grazing for centuries, leading to the development of specific plant communities and ecological patterns.

The river valley creates a natural border between the elevated terrain of East Zealand and the Stevns peninsula, shaping local settlement patterns.

The river provides multiple access points for fishing enthusiasts, with populations of pike, perch, bream, and seasonal sea trout migrations.

During winter months, the river valley floods its meadows, creating temporary wetlands that span between 200 and 500 meters in width.
