Panoramic views and magical light
Gudhjem has been able to attract man for more than 1,000 years. The rocks, the sea, and the special light create an almost magical atmosphere in the little town, which has been able to grow, and grow, up the steep cliff. Since the beginning of the 1900s, artists have flocked to Gudhjem, and attempted to capture the town’s atmosphere. One of them, Oluf Høst, has his very own charming museum in Gudhjem, where you can experience his beautiful paintings.

Along the coast, you will find the old coastal path. Experience incredible panoramic views of the sea. Continue all the way to ”Helligdomsklipperne”, which were named after a holy spring. The towering Helligdomsklipper are very impressive, and show the way to Bornholm’s Art Museum. The holy spring can still be experienced inside the museum, as the water has been allowed to run all the way through the building, as an art installation. A wondrous mix of the past and present.

Despite its modest size, Gudhjem is one of the most famous towns on Bornholm – and probably one of the most charming. The many small well kept houses, built in levels against the steep cliff, provides a very special atmosphere to Gudhjem. As soon as the 1800s, artists flocked to the town to experience the magical ”Gudhjem light” on the horizon. One of the most famous painters, Oluf Høst, has his own museum in the town today. Here you will have excellent opportunities for seeing “the light” and to have a very special art experience.

Great atmosphere on the harbour
The harbour is the centre of Gudhjem; you can experience a hum of life from the little cafes. There are daily departures to Ertholmene – the small rocky islands ”Christiansø” and ”Frederiksø”, east of Bornholm. In the beginning of the 1800s, the islands played a central part in the grand politics between Sweden, England, Russia, and Denmark. The English would bomb the islands on several occasions, while Danish soldiers stood fast, and kept the islands under the Danish flag. Visit Ertholmene, which is almost like going 200 years back in time.

Another interesting outing, is a boat trip on M/S Thor, which sails from Gudhjem and down the coast to the beautiful rock formation ”Helligdomsklipperne”, located directly beneath Bornholm’s Art Museum. When M/S Thor returns to Gudhjem, you will get the opportunity to explore the museum, with its impressive collection of local art. Take a later boat back to Gudhjem, or enjoy the beautiful walk back along the coastal path.

Perhaps you feel more like visiting the working agricultural museum of ”Melstedgaard”, where you can smell, feel and try your hand, at life on a Danish farm in 1950. At Melstedgaard, you will also find ”Gaarden”, which acts as a kind of food embassy for Bornholm produce and products.

Picnic on top of Gudhjem
Finish the day with picnic on top of Gudhjem. Feel the heat radiating off the rocks. Enjoy the view. Gudhjem is a town filled with atmosphere, adventures, and beautiful nature.

Bicycle holiday

See the nature from your bicycle
Bornholm has a very well designed web of bicycle lanes. 100 meters from Gudhjem Feriepark, you will encounter the first one. The lanes will take you along smaller roads, where cars are the exception, and beautiful nature the rule.

Fields of grain
Try going inland on a summer’s day, and experience the yellow fields of grain. The journey might be uphill, but you will reap the rewards on your way home, when you can freewheel downhill, and enjoy the views of the sea and the town of Gudhjem.

Østerlars Round Church and the Medieval Centre

Not far from the round church, you can visit Bornholm’s Medieval Centre – a living town, where you can smell, feel, and experience what life was like in the Middle Ages.

The bicycle lanes at Gudhjem Feriepark can also take you up or down the coast. Make a stop at one of the nature stops, feel the calm and quiet. Enjoy the beautiful view. If you are not bringing your own bicycles, you can hire a bicycle at Gudhjem Feriepark.

Running or cycling

An Eldorado for running and cycling
Bornholm is an Eldorado for those who have caught the running or cycling bug. The cycling terrain in Gudhjem has many fun hills, and is home to many of the island’s bicycle races.

In a very small area, you will find running routes in everything from hilly forest terrain, to long flat stretches of sand. Throughout the year, many amateur runs are arranged, with Etape Bornholm being the most famous. Etape Bornholm is a marathon split across 5 runs, with routes on all conceivable terrain – hilly, rocky, and sandy. The run attracts runners from all over the world, and the number of participants is ever increasing.

Around Gudhjem, you will find many interesting running routes:

The quick town run - 3 kilometres
From Gudhjem Feriepark, run towards Gudhjem. Down along ”Brøddegade” (one of the steepest streets in Denmark) to the harbour. Turn left at ”Løkkegade”, and follow it to Brøddegade, and run upwards to ”Lillevang”, where you turn left. Follow the road towards ”Melsted”, and turn right by Gudhjem Feriepark. A quick run, where you only run on tarmac.

Salene route - 6 kilometres
A varied route with stunning views of your natural surroundings. From Gudhjem Feriepark, run towards “Helligdomsklipperne” and Bornholm’s Art Museum. After approximately 3 kilometres, follow the road right, down towards the sea. Follow the coastal path back to Gudhjem Feriepark. A beautiful run in hilly terrain.

The ultimate - approximately 12 kilometres
You will run to Bornholm’s Art Museum and ”Helligdomsklipperne” along the main road. The sea will be on your left, and together with the beautiful rocky coast, it will be the perfect backdrop for a long run. By Bornholm’s Art Museum, turn left towards the coastal path, and back to Gudhjem. This stretch is thought to be one of the most beautiful in Denmark. The terrain is hilly, but the gorgeous scenery makes it all worth it.

The house beneath the ground
Take a walk through Melsted, and take in the village and its many charming timber framed houses. Notice ”the house beneath the ground”. The terrain in and around Melsted slants to such an extent that one of houses has a doorway, which is practically beneath the ground. Visit the working agricultural museum ”Melstedgaard”.

Hiking

Beautiful scenery
Gudhjem Feriepark is situated right in the middle of some of the most beautiful scenery on eastern Bornholm, and as such, it is an excellent holiday base, for the guests who love hiking in nature. Of many great hikes, we recommend:

The fishing village Melsted
500 meters south of Gudhjem Feriepark, you will find the little fishing village Melsted, and its many idyllic timber framed houses. Walk back along the coastal path, and enjoy the beautiful view of the scenery and the Baltic Sea.

Gudhjem town
With its narrow, winding, and steep streets, a walk through the town is a special experience. Admire the many beautiful houses, and maybe take a rest at a cafe by the harbour, and take in the atmosphere.

The coastal path
The old coastal path runs both north and south of Gudhjem. The path can be hilly in some places so remember to wear appropriate shoes. It will not take you long to understand, why, for centuries, so many artists have flocked to Gudhjem. The views are simply stunning.
