From the first bend of the winding road in Gudhjem you will follow the rocky path north around Salene Bay to Helligdomsklipperne. This walk is possibly the most beautiful walk along Bornholm’s coast.
The walk takes you to Hestestenene, three monoliths that act as navigation marks on the edge of a cliff 34 metres above the sea.
The walk continues through natural forest with the bay on one side and steep cliffs on the other – ending in the rugged rock formations known as Helligdomsklipperne.
From Helligdomsklipperne the path turns inland towards the Art Museum of Bornholm and the bus stop. There is also a flight of stairs down to a landing stage, from where there is a boat service to Gudhjem, weather permitting.
You can also choose to continue for another 200 metres or so to the bottom of Døndalen, where you can walk up the fault valley and see Denmark’s highest waterfall.
