Bornholm (Rønne), Denmark

Bornholm Highlights

Hammershus Castle, Agricultural Museum and Medieval Church Discover the natural beauty, culture and heritage of Bornholm during a scenic drive across the island. Embark on a panoramic journey along the coastline of this tiny island in the Baltic Sea as you travel to the cliff-top fortress of Hammershus—the largest castle ruins in Northern Europe. Stroll the remnants of this 12th-century stronghold and enjoy sweeping views of the sea, before continuing on to Høstet, a sea buckthorn farm owned by a local family. Listen to stories and sample several products before enjoying lunch on the premises. Next, venture through Almindingen, one of Denmark’s largest forests, toward the medieval Østerlars Church. Admire the striking whitewashed facade of this historic round church and—if no religious services are being conducted—explore the interior to see the 14th-century frescos and the carved altarpiece. * Demanding - Physically challenging activities, including extensive walks, hiking, riding, water sports, and high altitude activities.
