Start your full day Bornholm exploration with a scenic drive from the pier to the biggest castle ruin in Northern Europe, Hammershus, bringing the history of Bornholm to life. Learn about the various rulers that have lived here and the importance of the castle during the medieval ages.
Continue to the small town of Gudhjem, the only Danish village situated on a hill stretching from the sea to the top of the cliffs. Stroll the narrow and steep streets of this hidden gem before enjoying a lunch at the local smokehouse. Taste the most cherished local dish of the island, smoked herring, or some of the many other local treats served at the restaurant.
Your next stop is Baltic Sea Glass, where you will learn about the art of glass blowing from a local artist.
Continue along the coast to Svaneke, the oldest merchant city in Denmark and a paradise for those who enjoy small shops, local sweet treats or simply exploring idyllic fishing villages. You may choose to join your guide for a walking tour or explore the village on your own. Don’t miss visiting Svaneke Brewhouse, the first microbrewery in Denmark, established in 2000.
Reboard your coach and drive along the eastern coast to Dueodde Beach, one of the most beautiful beaches in Europe. Crystal clear water and fine white sand makes this beach one of the most visited in Northern Europe. Enjoy a view of this beautiful beach and see the highest lighthouse in Northern Europe before returning to the pier.
Please note: Participants must negotiate stairs and/or uneven surfaces and is therefore not advisable for guests with mobility limitations. Wear comfortable walking shoes.
