#StevnsKlint is a #UNESCO World Heritage Site, because it is the best place in the world to witness traces of the asteroid that hit the Earth 66 million years ago. The asteroid wiped out more than half of all life on the planet - including the dinosaurs.
As well as being a World Heritage Site, Stevns Klint also boasts totally unique nature, where you can experience both beauty and ruggedness at close quarters.
Stevns Klint is a white chalk cliff located some 6 km (3.7 mi) southeast of Store Heddinge on the Danish island of Zealand.
Stretching 17 km (11 mi) along the coast, it is of geological importance as one of the best exposed Cretaceous-Tertiary (K/T) boundaries in the world. Subject to frequent erosion, the cliff rises to a height of up to 40 m (130 ft). The cliffs are a UNESCO site.
