Fossil Hunting Adventure at Møns Klint

Formed over 70 million years ago during the Cretaceous period, these cliffs hide ancient marine fossils along the shoreline. The guided tour begins with a descent down Denmark’s longest staircase to the beach, where visitors search for fossilized sea creatures such as sea urchins, sponges, and squid-like belemnites.
