With a view of Ærø, two benches with tables invite you to rest. The forest keeps things cool, and the Baltic Sea makes it breezy. Reason enough to take a short break.

After the forest path, you'll discover a beautiful, wild, pebble beach right next to meadows and forest. The Baltic Sea is rocky and crystal-clear. According to the map, there's another restroom a short distance along the beach path.
