Bråten


Less than 10 minutes' walk north of Højerup car park along the footpath towards Stevns Fyr, photographers will adore Bråten, a clifftop perch with the best view down onto the Stevns Klint site.

But tread carefully as there's no fence to stop you falling off the top. It's just north of the Klintgården farmstead B&B.
