Restaurants Dänemarks (u. a. Noma) angeboten.<br />

In der Nähe des Ortes liegt der Flughafen von Westjütland.<br />

Er wird vor allem von Schul-, Taxi- und Privatflugzeugen<br />

benutzt, aber hier befindet sich auch Dänemarks<br />

Flugzeugmuseum mit einer interessanten Sammlung<br />

von Veteranflugzeugen. Das älteste Flugzeug stammt von<br />

1911, und im Sommer finden mehrmals Vorführungen mit<br />

diesen Veteranflugzeugen statt. Außerdem werden auch<br />

Rundflüge veranstaltet, auf denen man sich selbst von<br />

oben einen besseren Überblick verschaffen kann.<br />

The little harbour on the eastern side of <strong>Ringkøbing</strong> fjord is<br />

peacefully situated by the low water, and life is practically<br />

one with nature. This is perhaps why it’s said that boys<br />

were given a hunting licence when they were baptised so<br />

they were ready to become hunters. The fjord has always<br />

played an important role in life here. You can walk through<br />

the reeds right at the water’s edge and there’s direct access<br />

to the river Skjern Å’s nature reserve. Local fishermen<br />

and yachtsmen are active in the harbour, with its cosy<br />

environment and relaxed atmosphere.<br />

There’s a jazz festival in August which attracts lots of<br />

people to this very special harbour area.<br />

A very special item in Stauning is the production of one of<br />

Denmark’s only whiskies. It started as an interest among<br />

some enterprising men and it has gained very good reports<br />

from connoisseurs, and it is available in some of the<br />

best restaurants in Denmark, including Noma.<br />

The West Jutland airport is close to the town. It is used<br />

especially by the flying school, taxi and private planes, but<br />

the Danish Aircraft Museum with its interesting collection<br />

of veteran planes is also here. The oldest planes are from<br />

1911, and several times during summer there’s a display<br />

with these old planes. Joy flights can also be arranged for a<br />

better view of the area.<br />
