Falésias e miradouros em Bornholm

Coastal Cliffs and Viewpoints

Bornholm's northern coastline is defined by dramatic granite cliffs and unique geological formations shaped by the Baltic Sea. This selection includes the soaring Helligdomsklipperne and the eroded Kamelhovederne near the Hammershus ruins. Beyond the coast, the list features the historic Hammeren Lighthouse and Madsebakke, home to Denmark's largest collection of Bronze Age petroglyphs. High-altitude viewpoints like the Kongemindet tower and the 35-ton Rokkestenen rocking stone showcase the island's diverse glacial and maritime landscape.
