Top 20 Gorges in Denmark

A beautiful valley with steep cliffs, pastures, and a wooden boardwalk. The walk around the valley also takes you above the valley through a gnarled forest with stunning paths and views down to the valley below. Down in the valley, you can expect to share the path with cows :-).

There are many spectacular views of the cliffs along the entire route. Top!

Brutal real.. brutal of course.. definitely recommended if you are a good walker

Møns Klint is one of Denmark's most famous attractions and is located in the southeast of the island of Møn in the Baltic Sea. This majestic cliff made of white chalk rises up to 128 meters above sea level and stretches for about six kilometers. The view of the brilliant white chalk cliffs, rising steeply from the deep blue to turquoise sea, is incredibly contrasting and picturesque. Especially on sunny days, the cliffs shine in a dazzling white. From the various vantage points at the top of the cliffs, you have a wide, unobstructed view of the Baltic Sea. You can experience the endless expanse of the sea and, on a clear day, see as far as the German coast. Directly behind the chalk cliffs stretches an ancient beech forest, the Klinteskoven. The view from the hiking trails along the cliff edge offers a fascinating combination of dramatic coastline and dense, sometimes almost jungle-like forest. The chalk cliffs tell a story that goes back millions of years. They consist of the remains of microorganisms from the Cretaceous period that settled on the floor of a primeval sea. This makes the sight not only aesthetically but also geologically fascinating. The chalk cliffs of Møn are a magical place that impressively showcases the immense beauty and power of nature. A visit is an unforgettable experience.

Small view over the Krusautal

It may not be Bornholm's highest waterfall, let alone Denmark's, but with its approximately 6-meter vertical free fall it is one of the most beautiful waterfalls on the island.

The rift valley stretches to the coast

The FFH area, which covers 137 hectares, is located directly north of Flensburg and its western, northern and eastern outer borders border the Danish border. It includes a distinctively formed ice age tunnel valley with the Krusau and Niehuus Lake, which are partly near-natural. It also includes the agricultural land adjacent to Niehuus Lake, the stream gorges and the lowland areas, as well as the lowland area of the Krusau estuary and the mill pond with adjacent areas in the Kupfermühle area. The tunnel valley has a particularly diverse range of different biotopes and habitat types of flowing and still waters, grasslands and forests. The water habitats include the partially near-natural course of the Krusau with flooding vegetation (3260), the springs of the lowland and the naturally nutrient-rich Niehuus Lake (eutrophic lake, 3150). The surrounding grassland areas are characterized by semi-natural and near-natural, wet lowland biotopes and wet meadows. The lowlands north and west of Niehuus are characterized by sedge areas of varying types, but in particular the sedge (Carex acutiformis). The entire lowland area is the habitat of the moor frog. North of Kupfermühle, the former Kupfermühle pond and the lowland area adjacent to the south-west are occupied by extensive large sedge areas, moist tall herbaceous meadows (6430) and, in the slightly rising terrain, by (former) wet meadows. This part is particularly important for one of the main occurrences of the bulbous snail (Vertigo moulinsiana) in the area. Other occurrences are in the above-mentioned sedge areas and in the reed beds interspersed with giant swaths of Glyceria maxima.
