Hyllingebjerg
In 1983 a 8,5 ton stone fell out of Hyllebjerg Klint after a landslide. This stone turned out
to be one of the finest petroglyphs in Denmark. The stone is decorated with 3000 year old
ships and cup marks. The stone is now on display in the public library in Frederiksværk. Another ‘invisible’ attraction at Hyllingebjerg is a newly established underwater reef, which
protects the coast and restores good living conditions for fish.

Kikhavn
Kikhavn is the oldest fishing village on Halsnæs. It already had its present size in 1582 with
houses on both sides of the main street. The fishing was drift-netting for porpoises and
herring. Kikhavn has its own unique charm and you can still feel the unity that comes from
the days when the inhabitants cultivated the 300 acres agriculture together.

Heather Hill
The cycle route goes through Heather Hills. The area got its
name after a summerhouse, which was owned by an English business man. Park the bikes at the kiosk and
take a walk in the area’s rolling hills. Inhale the
smell of heather and see the characteristic
species of wild flowers of the area.
Knud Rasmussen’s House
Knud Rasmussen’s house is where the polar explorer lived and wrote his books from his
expeditions. Today the house is a charming museum and lies with a dramatic view of the
Kattegat. On a clear day you can see all the way to the island Hesselø.

Hundested Battery
North of Hundested you find Hundested Battery. The battery was built during the war with
England in 1807 – 14. Together with Skansehage Battery on the opposite shore it guarded
the entrance to the Isefjord. During the war with Eng-land many such batteries and entrenchments were constructed for the purpose of defending the Danish coast.

Hundested is a vibrant port with ferry service, a fishing fleet and a lively marina. On the
quay there are restaurants, cafes, Hundested’s own microbrewery, and a number of workshops. The first settlement in Hundested was a maritime pilots home from the 1830’s,
but with the establishment of the breakwater in 1862 the city grew. In 1916 the railway
connection was built and at the same time a ferry connection was established to Rørvig.

Troldeskoven
In central Tisvilde Hegn is the Forest of Trolls (Troldeskoven). It may easily spark one’s
imagination when riding between the gnarled pine trees that are up to 200 years old. The
gnarled trees are a result of wind, poor soil and pest infestations. If you are lucky you may
see deer or trolls in the woods.

Melby Overdrev: Zealand’s biggest moor
Melby Ovedrev has been in use as a military shooting range for the last 100 years and has
thus avoided being developed with cottages. The 145 hectares have now been taken over
by the Environmental Protection Agency and is Zealand’s largest contiguous moorland.
Here you can find plants and animals that are rare in the rest of the country.
Have a nice trip!

The North coast route is a sign-posted cycle route that leads you along the north coast of
Zealand from small cosy coastal and seaside towns through unique natural areas. From the
saddle you have the opportunity to experience places that you normally would not drop
by. The north coast of Zealand, also known as the Danish Riviera, has a large variety of
restaurants, hotels and sights that attract tourists from all over the world. It is possible to
shorten the trip by taking the railway. If you are up for a long bike ride you can follow one
of the other connecting bike routes.

village. At the small beach promenade, there are dining options and in windy conditions
you can often see windsurfers. The route runs along the beach road which nearly goes
down into the shallows. Between Smidstrup and Rågeleje you pass through one of the

Liseleje was established as a fishing village in 1784 to supply the workers of the gunpowder plant in Frederiksværk with fish. Commercial fishing ended in 1950 and Liseleje is now
a seaside village with cafes, restaurants and shopping. Close to the beach there is a big
playground (Havtyren) made solely from natural materials.

The plantation was established in 1793 to combat sand drifting resulting from animal

seabed where Scots pine and Austrian pine are the dominant species in the forest. In the
plantation south of Strandvejen, beech and oak are the most common.

Hornbæk - Helsingør
Elsinore (Helsingør)
“I place my hope on the Sea” was the motto of King Eric of Pomerania (1382 – 1459), referencing the introduction of the Sound dues in 1427. By introducing the toll and founding
of the Carmelite Monastery in 1430, he laid the groundwork for the current Elsinore. The
sea has brought Elsinore wealth ever since by trade, shipbuilding and ferry services. Today
Kronborg Castle is still the main attraction surrounded by the former ship yard that now
houses the Culture Yard and the Maritime Museum of Denmark. At the Øresund Aquarium you can discover the amazing flora and fauna of Øresund.

Hornbæk
Large yachts and open sports cars testify that Hornbæk is still one of the most popular
beach towns in Denmark. Here is one of the best beaches in North Zealand and a rich variety of restaurants. Hornbæk like other coastal cities grew from fishing, which throughout
the 1800’s attracted a number of artists who looked to nature and the locals for inspiration. After the artists came the summer visitors and Hornbæk became a seaside resort of
the Copenhagen bourgeoisie.
In Hornbæk Church you can see an altarpiece by C. W. Eckersberg.
Hellebæk
Hellebæk is probably the oldest industrial city in Denmark. It has produced cannons, guns
and textile. Today there is no industrial production left, but the former workers’ housing
and the old hammer mill testify to its historical heritage.
The Hammer mill café is located on the route, and you can sit by the millpond and enjoy
some refreshments while the water wheel rotates.

Nakkehoved
In Nakkehoved there are two lighthouses. One of them is still in operation and marks
the entrance to the Sound together with the lighthouse on Kullen in Sweden. Originally the two lighthouses on Nakkehoved were used to distinguish Zealand from the single
Lighthouse placed on Kullen. Today, the western lighthouse is a lighthouse museum. The
former Lighthouse inspector Kristian Faber (1775- 1845) lies buried in an old Bronze age
burial mound.
