Visit Bovbjerg Lighthouse - Stunning Views, Culture and Coastal Nature

Bovbjerg Lighthouse stands proudly on the steep cliffs of the North Sea, near Ferring and Lemvig, and is one of the most iconic experiences on the Jutland west coast. Here, you can combine a scenic hike with art, views and local charm in a truly unique setting.

A Lighthouse Full of Life and History

Built in 1877, the lighthouse is still active today - but it’s also much more than just a beacon for ships. Bovbjerg Lighthouse serves as a cultural centre and visitor attraction, featuring rotating art exhibitions, a cosy café, guided tours and events throughout the year. Run by passionate volunteers, it’s a lively hub of activity for both locals and holidaymakers.

Climb the 93 steps to the top and enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the sea, cliffs and the open West Jutland landscape. On clear days, you can see all the way to Thyborøn.

Bovbjerg is an ideal destination for those who enjoy hiking, cycling and fresh coastal air. The dramatic coastline invites you to walk along Bovbjerg Klint and toward Trans Church or Ferring Lake. Children will love running up and down the hills, and the lighthouse’s open grounds with picnic tables are perfect for a lunch with a sea view.
