Route description

The tour starts in the Slotslyngen nature area, which stretches from Vang to Hammershus and is a wild mix of rocks, heather, forest and bog. From here, the tour goes through Ravnedal, which is a beautifully hilly rift valley, and up to Bornholm’s highest round church, Ols Kirke.

From here, the route leads through Spellinge Mose with its rich animal and bird life and further through Rø Plantage, where it is well worth taking a detour to the artificial Borgedalsø.

The route continues up to Bornholm’s largest forest, Almindingen, and ends at the famous Ekkodal.
