Make a point to explore Hammershus Castle, the largest medieval fortress in Northern Europe. These impressive ruins sit above the Bornholm Coastal Path and are well worth the detour. Offering you breathtaking views of the sea and the surrounding landscape as you walk through the remains of the old walls and towers, you can almost imagine the castle in its prime. It served as a symbol of power and was a key part of the island's history. The panoramic vistas from here are perfect for a moment of quiet reflection.

Here it is sometimes steep up and down and there is a certain demand. However, the efforts are rewarded by many spectacular views.

Circular hike around Hammeren recommended. Good shoes and sometimes sure-footedness necessary.
