Our route and the official one
Øhavsstien is about 220 km in seven official stages on Funen, Tåsinge, Langeland and Ærø. It branches rather than running as one line: from Svendborg one arm follows the coast to Lundeborg, another crosses Tåsinge to Langeland, and the Ærø stage is reached by ferry. ThWay has all of it mapped as nine sections (218 km). This page starts with Faldsled to Rudkøbing, about 92 km.
Make the plan your own
Change the daily distance, the start or the kind of places you sleep in, and the planner works out every day again, with a bus into town and back where the trail has no beds.
