A gorge to fish from

Near Copenhagen there's quite a lot of small cozy towns and one of them is the town of Gilleleje on the north coast of Zealand. Even though the fishing has changed from a lot of small harbours and small boats to a few large fishing harbours with big boats, Gilleleje still has a small fishing industry. Even the name refers to the fishing as is an old Danish word for a gorge and leje is a place you put your boat in the water.

A cozy town

 

North of Copenhagen is Gilleleje, a little cozy town. Originally a fishing town it's now more a tourist hangout for the summer cottage people that flock here in the summer time. It still got a bit of a fishing industry so expect to met with the ordour of that trade when you visit the harbour.
