Outdoor stairs in Denmark. With 100, 200 or 300 steps or more? 
For outdoor walking, running or exercising.

For nature lovers, nature fitness fans and stair running (vertical running) enthusiasts here a list of the highest stairs in the Danish landscape … fairly flat as it happens.

The stairs on this list not only allows for intensive interval training, effective cardio work, and high energy consumption, as well as daylight and fresh air. The stairs also provide outstanding nature experiences and views of the Danish landscape; forests, slopes, fields, lakes, beaches and the sea.

Typical steps are about 18-20 cm high, or about 12-14 cm for some outdoor stairs.
Depending on the material and design of the steps, narrower or wider, from 25-26 centimeters to 40 centimeters, you can do different types of resistance exercises – in addition to stair walking, running, hopping and jumping.

On these and other stairs, you have to be observant  and careful. Uneven steps or damp or wet wood or stone result in a high risk of slipping or falling, so caution is paramount.
