Around Læsø on foot

Welcome to Læsø's fantastic hiking route all the way around the island, from Vesterø to Østerby and back. Experience walking through wide salt meadows, raised bogs of mosaic-like nature, heathers, dune plantations, beaches and unique cultural sights, which make up Læsø's cultural heritage; the saltworks and the seaweed roofs.

Stop by the tourist office and get Læsø's Ø-CAMINO map, and get an introduction to the route. Remember to check the opening hours of stores, restaurants and attractions on the island for your trip.
