Yes, national cycle route 10 is a 105 km loop around Bornholm and the shortest of Denmark's 11 national routes. Bornholm has more than 230 km of signposted cycle paths in total. The route signs on Bornholm have a dark green background, unlike the blue signs elsewhere in Denmark. The island has hills and cobblestones, so it rides differently from flat parts of Denmark.
