Rare species on Høje Møn

Discover a wealth of rare species

Høje Møn has developed into a sort of refuge for rare species that have completely or almost disappeared in the rest of Denmark.

Høje Møn, with its hilly geography and nutrient-poor limestone soil, is a place where many different species of plants, fungi and insects live in a complex interaction with the geology and each other. The area has historically been poorly suited for agriculture, and has therefore been less intensively exploited, and in some places completely left to itself for centuries. Høje Møn therefore constitutes a hotspot for Danish biodiversity and is home to a large number of rare species of animals, insects, birds and fungi that are linked to the unique flora on limestone.

Home to 100 species of animals on the Danish red list and as many as 180 species of rare fungi
