The Bison Path on Bornholm - meet a bison on your walk
The Bison Path in Almindingen is one of Bornholm’s most unique hiking experiences, taking you through forest and open landscapes – with the chance to encounter European bison along the way. The route passes through the Bison Forest and areas like Bastemose and Hareløkkerne, combining varied nature with an experience unlike anywhere else in Denmark.
Here is the route
Begin your hike at the parking lot at the Bastemose lake in Almindingen forest. From here, the path goes south through the Bison Forest, hereafter northwest to Hareløkkerne at Bornholms Trotting Course and then back to the parking lot at lake Bastemose.
Alternatively, you can start at the big parking lot in Hareløkken, opposite the Trotting Course.
The route is marked with violet triangles and dots, be aware that the route takes a lot of turns and bends. The hike is not very convenient for people with a baby stroller.
Meet a buffalo on your hike
In Bornholms largest forest, Almindingen, you’ll find a herd of about 15 buffalos (or bisons, as they also are called). They are within an enclosure, which you will walk through. When you see the animals, please keep your safety distance from them (abt. 100 metres).
