At the start of June last year, DMM loaded up the van with climbing gear and a small exhibition stand to visit Bornholm for an informal get-together with a few of its European distributors and climbers. Situated in the Baltic Sea, the small Danish island with 145 km of coastline is actually closer to Sweden than Denmark.

The island has a wide variety of easily accessible single pitch climbs. Near Lindesal (Hammeren) you’ll also find a small amount of bouldering in a beautiful setting. The granite quarry of Moseløkken offers well developed sport routes up to 35 metres in length but the rocky northern coast has a trad climbing ethic. 

This video featuring Alexandra Schweikart and Chris Igel gives a taste of the climbing on the island.
