Get outside and experience Bornholm the active way

Bornholm is a great place to be if you want your holiday to include a little more than relaxation. Around the island, you will find active outdoor activities for children, adults and families who want to try something new or challenge themselves.

Some activities will get your pulse going, while others are more about play, togetherness and good experiences under the open sky.

Try climbing on cliffs or high among the treetops, learn to surf on the sea or experience nature from horseback. In several places, instructors are there to help, and you can rent equipment, so both beginners and experienced guests can join in.

Close to a hidden world: The Baltic Sea surprises

Most people think of cliffs, forests and cycle paths when they hear Bornholm. But some of the island’s great outdoor experiences lie beneath the surface of the sea.

The low salt content of the Baltic Sea means that shipworms do not thrive here in the same way as they do in saltier seas. That is why old shipwrecks can be unusually well preserved underwater around Bornholm.

For divers, this opens up a very special world. Here, you come close to traces of seafaring, history and nature all at once, just in a different place than most people first think to look.
