Mols is an area in the southern part of Djursland on Jutland's east coast. From an aerial view it looks very much like a nose sticking out into the Kattegat.
The largest town of Mols is Ebeltoft which is a very picturesque seaside town located on the coast.
Mols has hills up to 137 metres in height which is very high by Danish standards and is part of a national park. It is a beautiful unspoiled country of farms and rolling hills that descend to the ocean, with very few large resorts.
The hills are called Mols Bjerge, where the highest points are Agri Bavnehøj (137 m), Trehøje (127 m) and Stabelhøjene (135 m to 133 m).
The people living in Mols are called Molboer, and are famous for their Molbohistorier - ethnic stories that they told to poke fun at themselves. A few of the better known ones are, "The Stork in the Corn," "The Thirsty Tree," and "Black Pudding."
