The route goes along a good path directly above the cliffs. Towards the sea... the abyss 😱. Later, after Gudhjem, you climb through rocks on a very narrow path: challenging …

Helligdom Cliffs

Highlight • Natural Monument

A truly stunning, rugged rock formation on the east coast of Bornholm. The cave located there can be visited with a flashlight and is definitely worth a detour!

September 3, 2021,Bornholm: Küstenwanderung ab Heiligsdomklippere nach Gudhjem
The "arrival" was by ship from Gudhjem. The path along the coast has many sections with great views of the Baltic Sea.
As a reward there is an ice cream from the best ice cream shop on the island, right at the port of Gudhjem.

From Gudhjem you can take a boat or bus to the Hellingdom cliffs. We then walked back along the coastal hiking trail. Thanks to @Uwe von Rügen for the tip. There are wonderful views of the rocky coast along the way.
In addition to the Hellingdom cliffs you should also take the descent to Sorte Gryde.
And a visit to …

We're still missing this section of the northern coastal trail, so let's get going😃!

The start and finish point of our hike today ♾️ is the free parking lot at the tour junction.

Right from the start, it's a steep downhill ↘️ to the water's edge. Once you've completed this short descent, the pleasantly laid-out path leads you flat and …

If you are on a section of the Bornholm coastal path, the task of finding your way back arises....🤔
In this case, contrary to our usual approach, we simply walked back because it was the only real alternative other than taking the boat!
Starting in the port of Gundhjem, we headed towards the beach to the Heiligsdomklipperne and into Sorte …

From Gudjem harbor, take the boat to the cliffs (110 kroner per person) and then walk back. Beautiful, varied route.

The MS Thor travels to the Helligdomesklipperne several times a day. You can see how impressive the rocky landscape is from the sea. We walked back. You should definitely take the many extra steps and walk down the bays. You might be lucky and be almost alone. The hiking trail is mostly shady and very pleasant to walk in warm …

An interesting tour. We first took a boat to Helligdomsklipperne. After a steep climb, we first entered the Døndalen valley, with a (at the moment) very manageable waterfall. We then continued along the coast with many beautiful views and exciting descents. After a quick refreshment with coffee and cake, we returned to Gudhjem.

September 2, 2024,Wanderung nach Gudhjem
It's a shame that the last boat from Gudhjem leaves at 3pm from September onwards. So we took the bus two stops on the way back.
