A section of the Grejs River runs through Grejs Valley (Danish: Grejsdalen), the largest gorge in Denmark.
The gorge is about 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) long and 50 to 70 metres (160 to 230 ft) deep.
The gorge's cliffs are primarily travertine and limestone, some of which has been quarried as a building material.
The traditional churches in nearby Hornstrup, Hover, and Jelling, as well as the modern Grejs Church, are built with Grejs Valley stone.
