Tourism is far from being a sustainable activity. Here on Bornholm, we are aware of the impact of mass tourism, therefore, we take the idea of responsible tourism very seriously.

We are committed to biodiversity and sustainability as part of a national programme aiming to remedy the effects of intensive agriculture, regenerate the soil and step away from fossil fuels. Some of the principles behind regenerative farming can be transposed to how we think of travel and holiday, all the more so in a world that is becoming increasingly volatile and tumultuous, notwithstanding the damaging impact of overtourism.

So, let’s think in terms of regenerative tourism!

It all starts by a radical simplification of our desires and expectations, a shift from the accumulation of experiences stored on our mobile devices, to slowing down so as to appreciate the fullness of each moment and the beauty of nature surrounding us.

We want visitors to have a wonderful time on Bornholm and leave with unforgettable memories. Maybe you will learn something about living a simple and joyful life, something that you can take back home.
