The entrance point of Stevns Klint is located in the abandoned Boesdal Quarry. It is first approached after an initial departure from the well-connected port town Rødvig, which in itself introduces the sheer scale of the cliff-line.
After an initial hike surrounded by farmlands, the flat landscape abruptly reveals the quarry wherefrom a large pyramidical structure catches the visitors’ attention and lures them in.
Once fully descent, visitors will notice that the surrounding hill has been dotted with a set of pyramidical sculptures and a protruding gate. This is the entrance point, wherefrom visitors are provided services to prepare themselves as they begin their journey.
As a visitor, you enter the building through a dark tunnel, which in the distance frames a bright view towards the sea. Just as your eyes begin to adjust to the darkness, streams of light hit you from the elongated aperture above the entered antechamber. Proceeded by a sloping tunnel, you are thereafter submerged further into the hill as you are led towards the exhibition.
Once entered, you are here struck by the bare gravel walls that embrace you. The hill will through erosion begin to intrude into the exhibition as its gravel filters through a netting. Together with the intruding water and the gusts of wind that will echo down from the apertures, you are here told of the weather’s impact on the unstable hill.
The water is lead out of the structure through a centered canal, subsequently creating a motion forward that accompanies as you proceed through an additional sloping tunnel. While the tunnel ends by opening up to your first encounter with the beach, the structure itself does a perpendicular turn to inform of the services provided to prepare oneself for the journey that lies ahead.
