Randkløve Skår

Randkløve Skår – one of Bornholm’s great nature attractions

The rift valley Randkløve Skår is one of Bornholm’s very great nature attractions. From the steep rocky coast, it cuts deep into the mountain and in the southeast direction into the country. This is in contrast to the island’s other leek valley, which usually runs in a transverse direction, ie northeast-southwest.

The cliffs at Randkløve Skår

The cliffs at Randkløve Skår were shaped by the movements of the ice a long time ago. On the upper side of Randkløve skår you can see a pegmatite with red feldspar and light quartz.
