Character

The annual bikeweekend together with my brothers was planned by Michael in Holm on Northern Als, which is our home island. His home was the goal of our first stage. We met at Fynshav, where I had cycled and sailed. The second stage took place on Nothern Als and by way of a short ferry crossing of the Als fiord in Sundeved (Jutland) and again on Als, in the land of our childhood, Soenderborg and its suburbs of Ulkeboel and Spang and finally at Madeskov campsite. The common part of the bike weekend was closed by a trip across central Als to the initial point of Fynshav. Along the way Michael and I "climbed" Hoegebjerg (81 m.a.s.l.). Now remained only a ferry crossing to Funen and a wet bike tour to Odense and my home in the suburb of Naesby.

Landscape

Metropolitan area on Funen followed by geest land with eskers like Sallinge esker and the quite hilly moraine landscape of Svanninge bakker. On Als and in Sundeved we cycled through coastal forests and more hills of glaical origin with views to fiords and the Als sound. The geographical climax was the hill of Hoegebjerg, near Fynshav, the highest point of the eastern Als ridge of hills. I took the same route across Funen, however with the hills "from the bottom" and therefore with steeper climbs. They're divided into three parts, which I call "the appetizer, the main dish and the dessert", as the climb in the middle is by far the worst. Altogether the terrain rises about 100 m over a distance of about 6 km from Millinge to Ny Stenderup.

Sønderborg (Danish pronunciation: [ˈsønɐˌb̥ɒːˀ] - is a Danish town of Region of Southern Denmark. It is the main town and the administrative seat of Sønderborg Municipality. The town has a population of 27,304 (1 January 2012),in a municipality of 76,793.

The town of Sønderborg is home to Sønderborg Castle Wikipedia Icon (Sønderborg Slot), the Royal Danish Army Wikipedia Icon's Sergeant School and Sandbjerg Estate (Sandbjerg GodsSundeved Wikipedia Icon) near Sønderborg. Sønderborg castle is in the centre of the town, and houses a museum focusing on the history and culture of the area. The museum is open all year. Sandbjerg Estate, which had belonged for many years to the Dukes of Sønderborg, and then to the Reventlow family, was donated toAarhus University Wikipedia Icon in 1954. In addition Sønderborg has a castle-like barracks built by the German military in 1906, placed centrally by Als Fjord, opposite Alsion (see picture below). Today the barracks is the home the Danish army NCO school.

The old part of Sønderborg is on the island of Als Wikipedia Icon, but some of its western suburbs Wikipedia Icon have spread onto the mainland of Jutland Wikipedia Icon into what had been the interior of the fort of Dybbøl Wikipedia Icon.

History

Prior to the Second Schleswig War Wikipedia Icon of 1864, Sønderborg was situated in the Duchy of Schleswig Wikipedia Icon, a Danish fief Wikipedia Icon, so its history is properly included in the contentious history of Schleswig-Holstein. In the 1920 Schleswig Plebiscite Wikipedia Icon that returned Northern Schleswig Wikipedia Icon to Denmark, 43.8% of the city of Sønderborg's inhabitants voted for the cession to Denmark and 56.2% voted for remaining part of Germany.

The town of Sønderborg lies on both sides of Alssund; the narrow strait between these two sides is called Als Strait (Alssund). Two road bridges connect the city across the strait: the 682-meter Als Strait Bridge (Alssundbro), built in 1978-1981; and the 331-meter King Christian X Wikipedia Icon's Bridge (Kong Christian Xs Bro), built in 1925-1930.
