Denmark is perfectly suitable for cycling holidays. The small kingdom welcomes you with a varied and beautiful landscape. You will discover wild forests and flourish meadows, beautiful coastlines as well as charming villages. Everything is close-by and always easy to reach. And your cycle is the preferred choice for this: There are over 12,000 km sign-posted cycle routes throughout the country. Leave the daily routine behind and discover new places and moments.
You stay overnight at Absalon Hotel,which is located in the Vesterbro district, the bustling center of Copenhagen.
The Danish capital has a lot to offer. An early arrival is highly recommended. Take a stroll through the medieval city center or visit the famous Tivoli.
Today´s route leads you directly to Roskilde. Until Albertslund you will follow a new bike path that takes you out of the center almost free of traffic. The Cathedral of Roskilde welcomes you from afar. Since the beginning of 15th century, the cathedral has been the favorite grave church of Danish royal family and since 1995 became a part of UNESCO World Heritage. A visit to the Viking Ship Museum is also recommended. After a city walk you will travel by train back to the starting point of your cycling tour, the Danish capital Copenhagen.
The first cycle stage will lead along the so-called Køge bay, with outstanding views to the Baltic Sea. The national park Amager Fælled is absolutely free of traffic and its scenic landscape will impress you. For those who are interested in art we recommend to visit Arken Museum of Modern Art. Køge belongs to one of the oldest cities of Denmark and is located directly on the coast. The white sand beaches invite for a jump into the cool water for a refresh, before you start your return journey comfortably by train.
You leave Copenhagen heading north. Today's stage will take you along the Öresund, the strait between Zealand in Denmark and Schonen in Sweden. Always with a view of Baltic Sea you will quickly reach the famous beach Bellevue. A swim in the cool water gives you refreshment. In Helsingør it´s worth to visit Kronborg Castle, or take the ferry for a quick trip to Helsingborg on the Swedish site. You will return again comfortably by train.
After breakfast, your journey ends. We are happy to book an extension stay for you to explore the Danish capital.
