Melsted Harbor

Highlight • Structure

As you make your way along the eastern coast, take a short detour to Melsted Harbour, a small and protected port nestled between two rocky skerries. The word "skerry" comes from the Old Norse word for a rock in the sea. Built from granite fieldstones in 1884, this harbour is a peaceful spot that still serves as a home for local fishing boats. Just a stone's throw away, you'll find a beautiful sandy beach, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy the serene seaside atmosphere. It’s a great example of the cosy, well-preserved fishing hamlets that dot the Bornholm coastline.

Stavehøl Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The hike to Stavehøl waterfall leads through the sometimes narrow valley of Kobbe å. In the winter half of the year, the stream carries a lot of water and the path is therefore only very narrow and moist in places. But you are alone in this enchanted place ...
And the waterfall deserves its name ...

Bornholm Coastal Landscape

Highlight • Viewpoint

The island in the middle of the Baltic Sea is closer to Sweden than to the Danish capital. Bornholm, along with six other uninhabited pea islands, is one of Denmark's easternmost offshoots and is only around 40 kilometers from the Swedish south coast. The Baltic Sea island is probably the most diverse place in the Danish kingdom. With its sandy beaches, spectacular rocky cliffs and extensive forest areas, it offers a variety of scenic highlights. The north coast is lined with spectacular rocky coasts with bizarrely shaped granite cliffs and remote bathing bays. In the south, powder-white sandy beaches beckon, and the interior of the island is criss-crossed by forests and flowering fields.

Gudhjem Windmill

Highlight • Monument

Located in the upper district of Gudhjems, the Dutch-style windmill towers above the townscape and is therefore visible from afar.

May 17, 2026,Kobbea Tal
Hike to Denmark's highest waterfall 😂. At least approx. 5 meters free fall. Very nice walk through the Kobbea Bachtal valley, wild garlic everywhere, then the waterfall at the end, back through the rapeseed fields with Baltic Sea view and also a stretch along the impressive cliff coast.

It's a beautiful tour. First it goes along the cliffs at Gudhjem. Then through the romantic Kobbetal.
The intermediate section along the cycle path offers wide views to the Baltic Sea. Then it's on to the valley of MelstedÅ.
There is a very nice barbecue area and a vineyard.
The path through the creek valley is very beautiful, but ends …
