Hummingen on the South Coast of Lolland: Beach, Dike and Cycling Routes

On the south coast of Lolland, Hummingen represents a clear combination of coastal landscapes, dike scenery and cycling routes. This provides a good basis for deciding whether beaches, landscapes or outdoor activities should be the focus of your stay. In Hummingen, these three perspectives can be combined without limiting the area to just one type of travel experience.

Hummingen Beach and the Coast

Hummingen Beach is a sandy beach on the south coast of Lolland and has a bathing jetty. The bathing water at Hummingen was classified as “excellent” in 2025; this classification expressly refers to the year 2025. By car, Hummingen Beach can be reached via Østersøparken, which leads to the beach car park. The beach has sand and a bathing jetty; access via Østersøparken leads to the beach car park on Lolland’s south coast.

The Lollandske Dige near Hummingen

The Lollandske Dige is located next to Hummingen and is accessible to pedestrians and cyclists. Its construction was intended to prevent a similar disaster. Near Hummingen, the route leads onto the dike and offers views of the reclaimed land and the Fehmarnbelt. The dike therefore complements the beach with a landscape setting that combines outdoor activity and views.

The Digegaarden shelter site is located in the Hummingen holiday home area behind the Lollandske Dige. Its location identifies another specific point in the area and adds a site in the Hummingen holiday home area to the orientation around the dike.

Cycling Routes in Different Directions

The “Det flade Lolland” cycling route starts and ends in Kramnitze. From Kramnitze, it runs westwards through Hummingen; the route can be followed in the “Naturlandet Lolland-Falster” app. Its connection to Kramnitze is therefore just as much a part of its course as the section through Hummingen.

The “Østersøruten” cycle route runs along the dike from Hummingen to Rødbyhavn. From Hummingen, you can continue eastwards on the “Østersøruten” and follow the “Nakskov Fjordstien” cycle route along the fjord to the centre of Nakskov. This opens up a second cycling perspective: the route leads from the dike section near Hummingen towards Rødbyhavn or onwards via the fjord route to Nakskov.
