Denmark
Denmark's topography is predominantly characterized by low-lying, gently undulating terrain, with an average elevation of about 31 meters (102 feet) above sea level. The landscape is largely shaped by glacial activity from the last Ice Age, resulting in features such as moraines, outwash plains, and fjords. Notably, the Mols Hills in eastern Jutland are a terminal moraine landscape formed by glaciers moving from south to north, with clay soils on the inner side and alluvial sand on the outer side. The country's highest point, Møllehøj, rises to 170.86 (560.56 feet) meters, while its coastline is marked by sandy beaches, dunes, and cliffs, reflecting Denmark's glacial history and contributing to its diverse yet subtle terrain.
