Bornholm is made for hiking. Here you can walk along steep cliffs with views of the Baltic Sea, follow small trails through the forest, and experience some of the island’s biggest attractions along the way.
If you stay at Feriecenter Bornholm near Allinge, you have a great starting point for an active holiday. Some of northern Bornholm’s most beautiful nature experiences are close by, while the rest of the island is within reach for a day trip.
You don’t need to be an experienced hiker to experience Bornholm on foot. The island offers everything from short walks along the coast to longer hiking routes through some of Bornholm’s most distinctive landscapes.
About 10 minutes from the holiday centre, you’ll find one of North Bornholm’s great nature experiences. At Hammerknuden, you can hike through a dramatic rocky landscape with views over the Baltic Sea and experience, among other things, Hammer Lake, Opal Lake and Hammer Lighthouse.
If you want to experience Bornholm on foot without driving anywhere first, the coast around Allinge and Sandkås is an obvious choice. Take a short morning walk, follow the coast towards Allinge, or combine the trip with lunch and a stroll around the harbour.
About a 20-minute drive from the holiday centre, Helligdomsklipperne awaits with cliffs, forest, and views of the sea. The walk can easily be combined with a visit to Gudhjem and turn into a cosy holiday outing.
If you drive into the middle of Bornholm, the landscape changes character. Here you can experience Ekkodalen and hike through the forests of Almindingen – a great contrast to the rocky coastline of North Bornholm.
If you want longer hikes, Bornholm also offers, among other things, Højlyngsstien and Kyststien, where you can choose individual sections or make hiking a bigger part of your holiday.
One of the special things about hiking in North Bornholm is the meeting between the cliffs and the Baltic Sea.
Around Allinge, Sandkås and Hammerknuden, you’ll find great opportunities to experience the coastal landscape on foot. Here, the route takes you between cliffs, small coves and viewpoints where you can stop and enjoy the view of the sea.
A hike doesn’t have to take up the whole day either. Take a short trip along the coast in the morning, have lunch or coffee in Allinge, and spend the rest of the day at the beach, by the pool, or at one of Bornholm’s many other experiences.
That makes it easy to fit hiking into your holiday.
Allinge is a great starting point if you want to experience North Bornholm on foot and still have restaurants, harbour atmosphere and town life nearby.
From Feriecenter Bornholm, you’re a short distance from the coast, while Hammerknuden, among other places, is only about a 10-minute drive away. That gives you the freedom both to plan a longer hike and to spontaneously lace up your hiking boots when the weather and the mood are right.
After a hike, the trip can therefore continue to Allinge or Sandvig, where you can have lunch, take a walk by the harbour, or simply enjoy the Bornholm holiday atmosphere.
THAT way, you can combine active nature experiences with everything else you want to fit into a holiday on Bornholm.
A good hiking holiday isn’t just about how many kilometres you walk.
On Bornholm, a hike can be one of the day’s many experiences. Maybe the day starts at Hammerknuden and continues with lunch in Allinge. Another day, you can experience Helligdomsklipperne and then continue on to Gudhjem.
At Feriecenter Bornholm, you can make the hikes part of your holiday and still have time for the beach, town life, restaurants and relaxation.
Bornholm suits many types of hikers. Families can choose short, manageable trips, couples can walk along the coast with breaks along the way, and experienced hikers can put together longer stages.
If you dream of hiking all the way around Bornholm, you can plan selected stretches of the coast and use Allinge as a base for several of the northern routes. That gives you the freedom to experience the island actively without having to change accommodation every day.
When you get around Bornholm on foot, you get closer to the landscapes that make the island special.
On one holiday, you can experience North Bornholm’s cliffs and sea views, walk among the trees in Almindingen, and explore rift valleys such as Ekkodalen.
From Feriecenter Bornholm, several nature experiences are within a short distance. That makes it easy both to plan a hike from home and to head out spontaneously when the weather is good.

It creates a nice contrast to the day’s activity and makes the hiking holiday more enjoyable overall.
Sit down with something cold to drink, enjoy the surroundings, or spend the rest of the day at the holiday centre before a new part of Bornholm awaits the next day.
