Experiences on the route
Don’t forget to go for a swim. Ristinge is located between Bagenkop and Rubkøbing and is known for its pristine sand beach. The beach is one of the best in Denmark.
If you're into arts and crafts, you should also make a detour to Humble and visit GALLERI NO 44, run by the artist Per Buk - the man who created the artwork "Fugl Føniks" (the Phoenix) for the Castle Route.
Enjoy the silence and amazing wildlife around Nørreballe and Lindelse Nor as you pedal along. From Lindelse Mølle you can also enjoy the view of Lindelse Nor.
