Those choosing Kramnitse for a stay will find practical starting points for planning their days at the beach, harbour and along the cycling routes. The combination of beach access, coastal activities and routes that pass directly through the area is particularly distinctive.
Beach, water sports and plant life
At Kramnitze Beach, a ramp leads down to the sand at the western end, near Kramnitze Harbour. It provides access for wheelchair users and pushchairs. East of the harbour mole at Kramnitze Beach is an area suitable for surfing. You can fish from the shore, the bridge or the mole.
The plant life is another reason to explore the coastal area. Among the species growing there are cow-wheat, wild celery, sea figwort,ache goosefoot, sea holly and elecampane. The area is thought to contain Denmark’s largest population of cow-wheat. Alongside activities on the water, nature observation is therefore another option to consider during your stay.
Harbour and dyke
Kramnitze Harbour is a small fishing harbour and a natural stopping point for many people on the dyke. It is the only emergency harbour between Rødby Harbour and Albuen. A concrete ramp with a landing bridge is used here to launch boats. The harbour, dyke and beach thus offer different ways to enjoy your stay, without requiring you to follow any particular daily schedule.
The history is also clear: Kramnitse has been a harbour since 1736. As of 20 January 2025, a dyke monument had already been erected east of Kramnitze Harbour.
Cycling routes for every distance
National Cycle Route 8, the Østersøruten, passes directly by Kramnitse. It is 820 kilometres long and can be ridden in 14 stages. The cycle route follows the dyke to Rødbyhavn or heads east to the centre of Nakskov. So this is more than just the name of a long-distance route: the directions described give you specific destinations for rides starting in Kramnitse.
The Naturlandet Rundt recreational cycling route also passes directly through the area. It connects to all 19 local, signposted circular recreational routes in Naturlandet Lolland-Falster, which range from 18 to 49 kilometres in length. This puts the long Østersøruten alongside shorter regional circular routes of varying lengths. Another option is the Det flade Lolland cycling route, which starts and ends in Kramnitse. However, it is signposted in only one direction. Along the way, it meets the Østersøruten, Munkevejen (89) and Naturlandet Rundt (N). Bear in mind that the route is signposted in only one direction when planning your ride.
A place by the beach
The Kramnitze Harbour shelter site is just a few metres from the bathing beach and is sheltered by hedges of rugosa roses. The site has a spacious shelter and a tent area for up to 15 people. These details offer another perspective on the accommodation options in Kramnitse, while the cycling routes, harbour and coastal activities can help you choose your destination.
