The Ballebjerg hike offers both beach, heath, and forest, and it winds around Samsø's highest point, Ballebjerg (64m).
The observation tower was erected in 1920 with funds from the local council chairman Morten Madsen, Nordby. In the northern part of the hike, many small and narrow agricultural plots can be seen. They indicate how intensively the land was cultivated in the past. See the hiking brochure Nordby Bakker Samsø Nordby. Nordby Bakker is a large hilly landscape along Samsø's western coast. The hiking routes in Nordby Bakker are all marked with posts in the landscape. Since some of the routes run on privately owned land, one should be aware that the traffic rules on private land differ from those on publicly owned areas.
