How do I get to Bornholm?

From/Via Copenhagen
There are several ways to get to Bornholm from Copenhagen. A domestic plane departs from Copenhagen Airport, and you can get from Copenhagen Central station by either bus or train via Ystad or the Køge-Rønne ferry connection.
Plane (expensive)
You can check plane departures and book tickets at dat.dk. There are multiple departures daily. The flight takes approximately 35 minutes.
Via Ystad (easy)
You can drive over Øresundsbroen to Ystad or you can take the train/bus from Copenhagen Central Station. You can buy train and ferry ticket at dsb.dk (Type in "København H" and "Rønne Havn"). More information about the crossing. The crossing takes 1 hour 20 minutes. In total about 3 hours 15 minutes.
Via Køge (cheap)
Take the S-train to Køge Station (you need an "all zones" ticket) or travel by car. The ferry terminal is within walking distance from the station. You can check out prices here. It takes approximately 1 hour to get to Køge. The crossing takes 5 hours 30 minutes.
Sassnitz (Germany)

Kolobrzeg (Poland)

The venue is 24km from Rønne Havn. It is possible to take a bus with a route nearby the venue. Local taxis can also get you here.

What kind of power supply can I expect?

We are working on sorting out the details. Power is a standard European 230V supply with type C & K plugs.

How much bandwidth is there going to be?

We will have a 1 gigabit fiber connection with enough v4 and v6 space to go around.

I need to eat!

Food vendors

There will be a few food vendors at the venue, and we are working on agreements with nearby food delivery places. If you are interested in becoming a food vendor please contact us.

Cooking

We know that hackers like to cook for themselves for various reasons, not limited to vegetarians/vegan diets. Everyone is welcome to cook their own food, either in their own village kitchen or in the food area. Please note that coal powered barbeques are strictly forbidden on the camp grounds for fire safety reasons. If you want to cook with coal use the big barbeque in the food area! Gas barbeques are allowed in villages.

The food area

The venue has a roofed outdoor food area with:

Villages without a kitchen of their own are very welcome to utilize this area for cooking. Please clean up after yourselves! :)

Buying groceries

The closest place to buy groceries is approximately 3.5 km away at Pedersker. About 7 km from the venue there is a larger selection at Aakirkeby. We are looking into the possibility of shuttle busses to and from the grocery places.

Bar area

The bar area is the place to go when you a all hacked out and want to socialize with the other participants. Enjoy a cold beer or drink and some music, and discuss your projects with the people around you.

The bar will be run with an open budget and flexible prices. More on that later.

Opening hours of the bar have not been decided yet (but they will be compatible with the average hackers sleep cycle).

Villages

If this is your first hackercamp the term 'Village' might be confusing but it is fairly simple: a village is just a spot on the campsite where you and a bunch of your friends/likeminded people camp together. Apart from peoples individual tents which they sleep in, many villages bring a large common tent where you can hack and hang out during the day.

Villages can also rent village tents. The details are not in place yet, but stay tuned for the announcement. The idea is that you order and pay for a large tent which will then be setup and ready when you arrive. The tents have wooden floors and you can rent folding tables and chairs as needed.

Village registration is not finished yet, but stay tuned! If you don't want to make your own village you will likely be able to find and join one that suits your interests.

The info kiosk

BornHack will have an info desk where you can ask questions when you have them. The info desk will cover the following functions:
