:Hello. Most of these sites aren't connected to any specific city. The ones I have added are very large areas, and I chose them as representing the entire South Jutland region. I have added smaller and less significant and defining sites to local articles. Draved Skov (which I didn't add) could be moved to the Tønder article, as it is rather small.

| content=Historic viewpoint and the highest natural point in South Jutland, at 113 metres. Despite the low height, there is a great all-round view across the region of Kolding, Lillebælt strait, and the island of Funen. The hills and local surroundings of wide grassland, ravines and woodland are all protected nature, offering a good opportunity for short nature hikes. The highest point is known as ''Højskamling'' and is historical significant for the birth of modern Danish democracy and nation state. In the mid 1800s, large groups of people gathered here to celebrate free speech and a new Danish nationalism, and there are still festivities and political speeches here on Denmark's constitution day of ''Grundlovsdag'' on the 5th of June. Several monuments for historic important Danes are scattered throughout the landscape, and not far from the top is a spectacular visitor center from 2021 built into the hillside. |

Listings for sites
@RhinoMind, Hjart: In this series of edits, I moved the listings for See and Do to the city articles to which they related in accordance to Wikivoyage policy (see WV:sections and WV:Region article template). The two of you have added a bunch of new listings to this article. While it is great to have added content for Wikivoyage, this information is in the wrong place. As you are most familiar with this region, please move the information you've added to the correct articles. Thanks. Ground Zero (talk) 20:57, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hello. Most of these sites aren't connected to any specific city. The ones I have added are very large areas, and I chose them as representing the entire South Jutland region. I have added smaller and less significant and defining sites to local articles. Draved Skov (which I didn't add) could be moved to the Tønder article, as it is rather small.

You can propose changes to Wikivoyage policy if you wish, but until the policy is changed, South Jutland should be organised in the same way as other region articles to make it easier for readers to navigate through Wikivoyage. Alternatively, you can create rural area articles below the region article if that makes more sense. Ground Zero (talk) 17:45, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
