Ristinge Klint

Dyssekammer

Fieldnotes

Access: Pleasant walk around 0.5km along pretty good but undulating coastal path.

Easy to reach from Hesselbjerg landysse. Head into Hesselbjerg village and take a left, then almost immediately follow the road round to the right towards Nyby and Ristinge. After about 2km, the road swings right and goes on to enter Ristinge. around 400 metres later the road forks - take the left and follow it to the end by the sea and park.

The road becomes a path which goes along a little back from the beach and then the 'cliff-edge'. as the path zig-zags along, look out for a path to the right, inland. This will take you to the dolmen.

Gorgeous.

Even though there was no picture, the moment I saw the map on the Visit Denmark website showing this one's setting I knew I wanted to try to find it! I thought it might be difficult, but in the end it was easy and sooooo worthwhile.

I expected a small pile of rocks & got Chûn quoit with a 240 degree sea-view!

So far I've not been able to find any information at all on the 'dyssekammer' in English. It'll just have to be enough to enjoy its beauty, which suits me.
