Baagø is sometimes windswept and occasionally harsh in winter, but is
idyllic indeed when spring arrives. The abundance of nature areas
provides peace and quiet for nature lovers who can easily while away
the time for several days on Baagø.
Baagø is situated in an EU bird protection and RAMSAR area
affording fine opportunities for birdwatching. In the spring of 2003,
two birdwatching blinds were set up for this purpose.
Fine hiking and cycling trips are also possible on Baagø. See the pamphlet “Tracks in the Landscape” available from the Assens Tourist Office.
