What is Enhanced Landscapes?
Enhanced Landscapes is a project which aims to improve Skyrims landscape. This includes floral objects, rocks, ruin clutter and a lot of other landscape assets. This also aims to improve the distant appearance of mountains, cliffs and other rock formations. The mod is a complete landscape overhaul, which comes with its own grass and tree addons and many other options. It's a big project with a lot of changes to the landscape of Skyrim, probably the biggest of its kind.
What do I need to run this mod?
Well, obviously you will need a copy of Skyrim with its DLC. You'll also need a tool named DynDOLOD to generate better and new LOD for Enhanced Landscapes, without it, you will miss some of the core features of Enhanced Landscapes as better looking distant mountains and more distant objects.
DynDOLOD is very user-friendly and with some patience it won't take much time to install Enhanced Landscape and generate LOD files with DynDOLOD.

Why does it have its own website?
The mod is hosted on Skyrim Nexus and can only be downloaded from there, but since the space on Nexus is small and doesn't contain as many features as a own website I've decided to move most information, instructions and images to this new website. This way I can also show all features of Enhanced Landscapes with images, comparisons and a lot of text more easily.
Which version of Skyrim is currently supported?
Enhanced Landscapes only works with the classic Skyrim version. There are also some complicated ways to make it work with the Special Edition (with LOD), but that's not really worth it at the moment without a proper update of DynDOLOD for the Special Edition.
