New cliff material is exposed regularly due coastal erosion, prompting rock falls.

Here and there corroded cannonball holes can be found in the cliffs, supposedly from target shooting performed by German warships during World War II.

The cliffs are not very known, not even among local residents on the peninsula, Djursland, where they are situated on the north-east coast facing Sweden 100 km across the sea.

[6] Access to the cliffs by car is possible at The Bight of Hjembæk [Wikidata], 10 km north of the town, Grenaa.

The formation also surfaces in northern Denmark, south of the town of Aalborg, where the limestone is used as a raw material for production of cement in a large scale.
