Bornholm – Denmark
Helligdomsklipperne – The Sacred Cliffs of Bornholm Regular readers will know by now that Bornholm is one of our favourite destinations. It’s a beautiful island in the Baltic Sea. It belongs to Denmark, although its location is actually closer to Sweden than to Denmark itself. It’s an island with many faces. You could say: Denmark […]

Hammershus – Ruins, Wind and Light at the Edge of Bornholm I’ve written about it before and even created a book about it, Bornholm – Pearl of the Baltic Sea. It’s an island with many faces. You could say, Denmark in miniature. The most beautiful beaches in the south to rugged rocky coasts to the […]

Autumn – Denmark – Jutland
Himmelbjerget – The Autumn Colours Around Silkeborg’s Lakes In the heart of Jutland, not far from the charming town of Silkeborg, lies Himmelbjerget – literally “The Sky Mountain”.
