Tarm

Travel Guide

Tarm offers wonderful natural experiences and an exciting art discovery route.

Mention of Tarm instantly leads Danes to think of the fact that the name of the town also means "intestine". They've definitely heard their share of jokes about that in Tarm. The town originally got its name because the word was once used to describe any long, narrow stretch, and the village of Tarm was originally located on a small isthmus along the Skjern River.

When spending a weekend or holiday in Tarm you can follow along an interesting art walk through the town. There are no fewer than eight different sculptures around the town just waiting for a closer look. Tarm also has a wide variety of shops and restaurants for the hungry visitor.

Visit the Hattemagerhuset museum in Tarm's oldest house, and get a glimpse of what life was like in the old days. You can take part in some of the activities both inside and out. Experience cooking over an open fireplace or chopping wood for a bonfire. You can also try making your own hat every Wednesday when the hat maker is on site. The Hattemagerhuset is more than 200 years old.

The natural environment surrounding Tarm and along the Skjern River are incredibly beautiful. There is a wonderful network of paths, places to barbecue and watch the hundreds of different migratory birds the area attracts. Sport fishers can catch salmon in Skjern River. At Skjern meadow you can cross the river on your own with a rope ferry.

If you have not hired a car for your holiday, there are good transport connections with bus and train to Tarm. Tarm is about 30 miles from Billund International Airport. Taking public transport will require both bus and train connections to Billund. For example, you can take a train to Esbjerg and then change to a bus for Billund.

For something special, take a trip to Lønborg moor, slightly to the west of Tarm, which is a protected heath area that has remained completely untouched.

Fint sted
"Lejligheden var fin og funktionel. Der var lidt støj fra vejen om natten. De to enkeltsenge i lejligheden kunne måske godt trænge til en udskiftning, men overordnet set et rigtig fint sted til prisen. Kan godt finde på at bruge stedet igen."
