The next stage of the route runs through Lund [1] to Vemmetofte [2] where the main attraction is the abbey. Although the estate and the beautiful main building are rich in tradition, this architectural gem is now home to a modern farm and forestry business. Enjoy a stroll below the 300-year-old linden trees and visit the courtyard, the animal park and the quiet churchyard. If you fancy a longer walk, you can reach Vemmetofte beach by walking through the woods along the bay, where beech trees and oaks give way to moors, woodland meadows and grazing areas. The trees stand so close to the beach that they are reflected in the salty waters of the Baltic. The water is very shallow here, and children can safely wade out from the shore.

The route continues through a large wood to Fakse Ladeplads [3] where we suggest you take a detour to Fakse [A]. Not only is the world-famous Faxe beer brewed here, but visitors can scour the old limestone quarry for fossilised sea urchins, belemnites and other fossils. Once past Strandegård [4], the route leads first through a small wood, then directly alongside the beach. Strandegård is the ideal starting point for a walk on the Feddet peninsula. Four established paths wind through windblown beech forests and coniferous woodlands, salt meadows, heathland and cliffs. The shores, though only a few kilometres apart, differ markedly. While the western coast of Præstø Fjord is calm, there is often a heavy surf on the eastern side. This small, isolated peninsula is a car-free protected area and a favourite breeding ground for many rare species of birds, making it the ideal destination for all nature lovers. Back on the route again, you´ll get yet another chance to go for a swim when you reach Sankt Peders Kapel [5]. From now on, you´ll be cycling along the shores of Præstø Fjord. Once you´ve passed Hollænderskoven wood you´ll reach the charming little market town of Præstø [6]. Præstø is home to Nysø Slot, a castle that houses the Thorvaldsen collection, the Brandværnshistorisk Museum, which is dedicated to the history of fire fighting, and a church with an extremely beautiful altarpiece. The town, which is full of narrow, winding streets, also has a small harbour. If you like the sea, you can take a detour from Præstø or even cycle along the alternative route around the Jungshoved peninsula where you´ll find an impressive landscape and excellent views across the water. On a good day, you can see as far as the island of Møn.

Continue via Skibinge [7] through yet more woods to Sandvig [8], where a wonderful beach may tempt you to take another dip. From Sageby [9] the main route leads to Kalvehave [10], unless you take a detour towards Langebæk [C]. Here, you´ll find Petersgaard manor house and Agerholm, Denmark´s new arts centre featuring more than 50 sculptures and a modern gallery dedicated to arts and crafts.

From the southern tip of Zealand, the route leads across the bridge known as Dronning Alexandrines Bro. The structure, with its elegant arches of steel and concrete, links the island of Møn with Zealand. Cycle via Lendemarke to Stege on Møn (D). The mill port, a legacy from the huge defence works that protected the island in troubled times, symbolises Møn´s lively and once very prosperous capital.
