5 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.

You'll visit kid-friendly attractions like Nyhavn and Rosenborg Castle. Museum-lovers will get to explore National Museum of Denmark and Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek. When in Copenhagen, make a side trip to see Stevns Klint in Store Heddinge, approximately Store Heddinge away. There's much more to do: look for gifts at National Gallery of Denmark, explore the landscape on two wheels at Bike the City, stop by Christiania, and explore the activities along Peblinge Lake.
