The most comfortable and quick way to reach the top of Kriváň starts at the point called Tri studničky. The first serpentines of the green-marked footpath bring tourists to a place called Grúnik, which witnessed some bitter fighting between the partisans and the Nazi troops at the end of the Second World War. The path goes on from Grúnik crossing the slope of the Priehyba Mt. to a steep trough covered by falling debris from the Kriváň.

An exceptionally attractive trip is the ascent to the Kriváň Mt. (2,494 m ) a stout peak in the western part of the High Tatras. This mountain is a multiple winner of enquiries about the mountain in Slovakia. It is easily recognisable for its conspicuously curved summit, which is the reason why it is called Kriváň (in English Curved Mount).

Not the most comfortable place to sleep, but it was worth it for the view.

Rubjerg Knude is the highest point on the west coast of Vendsyssel. The cliff is 60 m high, on top of which is a mi­grating dune of up to 30 m in height. It has been created by the wind tearing grains of sand from the cliff and blow­ing them up over the edge of the cliff, where they are then deposited.

Cheaters! Our only transportation, which we used between borders of Portugal and Spain.

They say that Bruges is a romantic city, but for me was more interesting how many people get wasted drinking by the canal. Getting loaded by the canal is a proper beer romance.

Coffee and this chocolate chip bun from Aux Merveilleux saved our mornings.

48 hours of museums and all the touristy stuff.

There are many places to visit, but we wanted to go on a boat trip, see the view from The Belfry and the Groeninge museum. By itself, it would cost more than the pass. The two-day pass, which cost around 40 euros let you explore all the museums and exhibitions. I’ve never felt so touristy in my life, but you can survive that while you’re drunk.

That feeling of the alienated world is just on eyesight.

We’ve started to walk from small town called Lønstrup, which is 4km away from the cliff.

Denmark is a flat country, considering that the highest “mountain” is 170m tall. That’s why you can be happy for Rubjerg Knot, which is the highest point on the west coast of Vendsyssel. The cliff is 60m high and on top of it is a water slide up to 30m.

At some point, you may even stop thinking you actually are in Denmark! Enjoying the weather, nature, stare at sea or climbing the dunes bare foot.

Back in the days when Rubjerg Knot Lighthouse was built (1899), the highest place was chosen 200m inland. But nature gradually showed the power. The wind and the ocean have broken down the cliff, so the lighthouse is only a few meters from the edge. It is created by the wind blowing loose sand grains from the cliff.

The lighthouse is the last building to remain standing against the sand, but not for long. The lighthouse will within the next 10-15 year fall into the sea because of coastal erosion.
