Møns klint 2


Endnu et smukt billede af klinten. Det som er det specielle ved klinten er at den er lavet af kalk. Så man kan samle fine kridt dernede ved stranden...hvis man gider at gå ned af de 822 trin af trappen. X3

---- Some information for the English speaking audience----
The Cliffs of Møn, is an impressive landmark and tourist attraction along the eastern coast of the Danish island of Møn in the Baltic Sea. The bright chalk cliffs stretch some 6 km from the park of Liselund in the north to the lighthouse in the south. Some of the cliffs fall a sheer 120 m to the sea below. The area around Møns Klint consists of woodlands, pastures, ponds and steep hills, including Aborrebjerg which, with a height of 143 m, is one of the highest points in Denmark. The cliffs and adjacent park are now protected as a nature reserve. Møns Klint is popular with tourists from across Europe with hundreds of thousands of visitors a year. There are clearly marked paths for walkers, riders and cyclists. The path along the cliff tops provides impressive views and leads to steps down to the shore in several locations.

You can pick up chalk at the bottom of the cliffs...if you bother to walk the some 822 steps stair down to the beach...
