tour description

Sunny paradise Bornholm

Enjoy Bornholm, the small Danish paradise for cyclists. Bornholm offers Scandinavian landscapes in miniature like a picture book. The complete island is subdued by bike paths. You cycle on bike trails along the coast line round the island. Only 40 km wide and 30 km long is Bornholm, but more varied than any other part of Denmark. Discover wonderful white beaches and dunes in the south and the wild granite cliffs in the north. The country is crossed by forests and heathens. On your bike you marvel at such important cultural treasures as the medieval castle ruins Hammershus or spectacular landscapes such as the Helligdomsklippen. Like pearls on a chain, Bornholm's picturesque towns and villages line up, almost all of them by the sea. They often shine in bright colors, showing a lot of half-timber and wonderful floral decoration.

1. day Arrival Rügen (Sassnitz/ Mukran) + Ferry Rønne

Individual arrival in Mukran for the ferry crossing to Rønne (approx. 3.5 hours, excluding bike). After leaving the ferry In Rønne you will be greeted by the guest manager, drop off your luggage and receive your tour information. If you rented bikes, they will be ready for you at the start hotel in Rønne.

2. day Rønne - Allinge/ Sandkas 28 – 30 km

Look forward to the western part of Bornholm with its spectacular cliffs and the village of Hasle. The city has become famous for its smoked fish, which you should not miss! Rugged cliffs, pristine forests, crystal clear lakes and fine sandy beaches - everything will cross your way. Past the magnificent castle ruins Hammershus, which sit enthroned on a cliff above the Baltic Sea, you cycle to Allinge or Sandkas.

3. day Trip to North Bornholm 15 – 27 km

Discover today the northern tip of Bornholm with the Hammeren, a beautiful nature reserve. Enjoy Sandvig's beach and marvel at the petroglyphs in and around Sandvig. They emanate from the first inhabitants of the island and are said to be 2,500 years old. The granite surfaces and a visit to the venerable harbor hotel will impress you as well. This white building is situated at the small harbor and rewards its guests with a magnificent view over the Baltic Sea.

4. day Allinge/ Sandkas - Svaneke/ Balka/ Nexø 28 – 41 km

Cycle along the coast to Gudhjem and visit the art museum there. A slight detour to the cliffs of Heeligdomskliperne is a must. The smokehouses and the small harbour define the town of Gudhjem. Continue along the coast through several small fishing villages until you reach Svaneke. Spend the night in Svaneke or Balka.

5. day Round trip Paradiesberge 35 – 40 km

Discover today the impressive church of Øesterlar, one of the oldest sacral buildings on the island (built in 1150). With 3 floors and massive outer walls, the church used to be a fortified place of refuge for the Bornholmers. Before your return, you should enjoy the fantastic view from the lookout tower Rytterknegten.

6. day Svaneke /Balka/ Nexø - Rønne 43 – 51 km

Start your day with a visit to the town center of Nexø, the second largest town on the island with 4000 inhabitants and characterized by its harbour. A harmonious mixture of old and young, from the harbor environment and lively hustle and bustle on the market square awaits you. Stroll through the small shops and stop at one of the nice cafés and restaurants before you follow the cycle path inland through wide fields and meadows to the flower town of Aakirkeby. Visit the imposing and oldest stone church on the island before continuing to Rønne.
