- Møns Klint (the chalk cliffs) — sheer white cliffs plunging into the Baltic, with jaw-dropping panoramas you won’t find on most lowland Danish hikes. The exposed chalk layers make it a magnet for fossil hunters and photographers; the climb down the wooden stairs to the pebble beach feels dramatic in a way few Scandinavian trails do.
- Liselund Park and the Romantic Pavilion — a tiny, perfectly kept 18th-century landscaped park with thatched cottages, a miniature “castle” and shaded paths tucked right behind the cliffs. It’s an almost storybook contrast to the raw coastline—great for a quiet picnic or to escape the wind for a while.

- Stege — medieval town and harbour — cobblestone streets, an intact town wall and a working harbour where you can refill supplies, sit for a coffee or eat fresh fish. It’s the cultural heart of the route and a pleasant human-scale contrast to the wild seascapes around Møn.
- Fanefjord Church and its frescoes — a small medieval church decorated with remarkably preserved 13th-16th century frescoes from the Elmelunde school. Stepping inside feels like a time capsule—an unexpected slice of Danish cultural history right on the trail.
