7 days in Copenhagen Itinerary

Founded in the 10th century as a Viking fishing village, Copenhagen has morphed into the cultural, political, and economic powerhouse of the country.

Do some cultural sightseeing at Stevns Klint and Roskilde Domkirke. Explore hidden gems such as Gudmindrup Beach and Bike the City. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Copenhagen: Dragsholm Castle (in Vindekilde), Holtug Kridtbrud (in Store Heddinge) and Eskebjerg Vesterlyng (in Eskebjerg). The adventure continues: pause for some serene contemplation at Fanefjord Church, look for all kinds of wild species at Roesnaes Naturskole, explore the world behind art at The David Collection, and enjoy the sand and surf at Bellevue Beach.
