A Beautiful Walk




Saturday I went on a 22 km. hike in southern Denmark. The path I took is called "Trampestien" and runs from a little privately owned fishery village called "Bøgeskov harbour" to another little harbour called "Rødvig." This path is on UNESCOS heritage and takes you through fields bursting of wheat, barley and rye, flowers of all kinds and wild berries (the raspberries were delicious) plus, of course, a breathtaking view of the water. You actually walk by the edge with only a row of bushes between you and the cliff. 

Bøgeskov Harbour - the starting point
Only you and a row of bushes. Signs along the way informs you that you're walking at your own risk :-)



Now a balcony where the alter used to be.
When you reach the cliffs at Stevns you see "Højerup church" in the distance where part of the alter tumbled into the sea in 1928. You also notice the rough chalk cliffs and that the chalk at the sea bottom colours the sea azure. The clay on the side of the cliffs is more than.... 60 million years old!
