We learned about this place by Reading the guidebook about the Northern Denmark, and decided to see it because of its unique and picturesque setting.
We traveled by car, and found our way very easy due to good road signs on the road nr 55.
The large parking is arranged by the road, there are toilets here as well. The entrance road to the Lighthouse is beginning from the parking, it is a gravel/sand road and there is some 1-1,5 km you need to walk to reach the seashore. Road has a slight elevation all the way, and the last 200-300 meters you need to manage a real climbing up the sand dunes to reach the remains of Lighthouse itself. In the time of our visit a strong wind appeared, and I experienced this climbing as hard with lots of sand in the air.
Lighthouse itself was built in 1899 some 200 meters from the waterline, but now the land it is standing by is disappearing by approaching sea and in some 10-15 years it is calculated to fall and the land it stands on to be consumed by sea.
There is not much left of the original Lighthouse, the mirrors on the top are still in place. It is allowed for now to climb the inner spiral stair to the top platform of the building, and views towards the sea, along the coast and to the ruins of abandoned village by the foot of the Lighthouse are stunning.
Wind on the shore was so strong that it could support a human to lie down and rest on it.

We visited at the beginning of August whilst staying locally at a friends beach hut.
The beach is amazingly clean, the sand lovely and clean and perfect for sandcastle building. The water is good for paddling and bathing and you can even drive your car down onto the sand.
A lovely clean and quiet area to enjoy the Danish seaside - there are changing rooms just up at the cafe and bins there too.
Highly recommend if you're in the area.

Visited with my family recently after seeing good reviews online. My son, 2 years, had a good time but as parents it's not fun when the place is so run down like carts with flat tyres, animals that are chained (goat) or rabbits living on top of each other with wounds and staff that walk around smoking among the visitors. Will not come back.

Are you fascinated by the light in Vendsyssel? Then visit Galleri Løkken. In one of the oldest houses John Kristensen has established a studio and exhibition. His oil paintings center on the atmosphere and light of the north, and that is why most of the painting is done outside - on location. In the gallery you will also see a series of paintings from 1982 to 2012 from the nearby Rubjerg Knude Fyr. Free entry - open all year.

Fint galleri med lidt af hvert at se på..
Priserne er ok og man kan godt finde lidt at tage med hjem, eller lidt til sommerhuset

Good selection of a variety of beer types. Ask for a tray of beer tasters and you can try them all. You can also purchase bottled beer to bring home with you.

If you want to see a quiet village church, this will not disappoint. For such a small village, the church is surprisingly ornate and has similiarities to the magnificent Budolfi Cathedral in Aalborg. The graveyard surrounding the church is immaculately kept and serene.

der stod blues på musikprogrammet og den vanlige buffet på programmet. vi fik ualmindelig lækker salater, kartoflerne var lidt overkogte og det samme var kødet fra kalv og kylling, men alt i alt en lækker oplevelse. Og så finder jeg det beklageligt, at man stadig bruger kærgården i stedet for rigtigt smør. Men der er jeg nok en af de færre.
der var omkring 100 gæster og spisningen forløb professionelt og hurtigt. venlige og søde frivillige stod for seancen. stor cadeau til dem!

Rubjerg Gamle Kirke/Kirkegård fortæller historien om det barske liv ved den jyske vestkyst, hvor sandflugten ofte hærgede.
Rubjerg Gamle Kirke blev bygget omkring 1180.
Fra 1500/1600-tallet medførte sandflugten, at de fleste beboerne i sognet flyttede længere ind i landet.
Man benyttede stadig kirken, men problemerne med sandet blev større og større, og i 1904 blev kirken revet ned og erstattet af den en ny Rubjerg Kirke, der ligger 2 km sydligere og længere inde i landet.
Stenene fra den gamle kirke blev brugt ved bygningen af den nye kirke, men en del af vestgavlen af den gamle kirke er bevaret.
Kirkens placering er i dag markeret med en græsvold.
Mange gravstene på kirkegården er bevaret (se de fotos, som jeg har taget).
Rubjerg Gamle Kirke/Kirkegård er absolut et besøg værd.

Her bliver man klogere på hvordan livet levedes i gamle dage. Hvad et hushold kostede kan man se i gamle regnskabsbøger. Mulighed for at lære nogen om områdets geologi. Gode muligheder for at give børn viden, der er mange opslag i børnehøjde. Tæt på ligger Rubjerg Knude, som er det mest fantastiske vandringsmål for børn og voksne. Der er kun åbent i sommerhalvåret på Strandfogedgården. Man kan leje cykler spise medbragt mad. Desuden udgår der mange naturture med naturvejleder fra stedet, følg med i lokalavisen for Løkken.

Reviewed By BKC2013 - Aarhus, Denmark
Kirken er opført i nygotisk stil, og blev indviet i 1898. Sognegården er opført i 2012, og er bygget sammen med kirken med en glasgang. Denne forening mellem nyt og gammelt virker umiddelbart meget vellykket. Man har også valgt at flytte indgangsdøren til kirken fra vest til syd, og så er der blevet indsat vinduesruder i den tidligere døråbning. Så selvom døren var låst, kunne man få et kig ind i kirken gennem dette vindue.
