Copenhagen

Design, cycling and the best new-Nordic food on earth.

Travellers come here for food, nightlife, culture and meeting people.

When to go

Aim for July, August and June. Think twice about November, December and October — the wettest stretch of the year.

Getting there

The airport is CPH. Copenhagen is on an intercity rail network, so nearby stops are often better reached by train than by air.
