We spent the morning roaming the trails of Dyrehaven. We were looking for a great taste of nature…read moreand hoping for a deer sighting and it did not disappoint. We enjoyed walking thru an empty (not yet open?) Bakken upon entry and then wandered up to Hermitage. We encountered a doe and fawns within 10 minutes, as well as many birds throughout. We hit the jackpot after reaching the lodge, where we walked upon a large herd. Just gorgeous! After spending a while admiring the beauties, we headed off towards the Taarbæk exit to find lunch and back towards the train station. Beautiful grounds, lots of (occasionally marked & mapped) trail options, lovely trees, and stunning deer. A great day in Denmark. :)

When I think of Dyrehaven, the thing that comes to mind is all the times I enjoyed walking through…read morehere as a child with my family. Usually on a day where we had also been to Bakken we would take a stroll through Dyrehaven with either a picnic or to see if we could catch a glimpse of some deer. Now as an adult I still love Dyrehaven just as much! I generally come here just for the sake of enjoying Dyrehaven and not after a day of being at Bakken. Dyrehaven is such a beautiful place and it's perfect for a relaxing walk, going for a run, bike ride or a picnic. It's a big place to explore with many different paths to take that it's always really enjoyable! Plus, It's always such a thrill when you see deer in the distance. Beautiful!

Nice, large natural area nearby our hotel. We rode a bike over to roam for a while. There are loads…read moreof criss-crossing dirt trails, (mostly flat) both wide for biking etc and narrow best for on foot. No signage of any kind except at the entrances...it definitely would've been nice, but of course the phone worked fine to choose a route as we went. We had to cross through a few gates, and were hoping to see the animals they were keeping in but no such luck. We did see some horses, lots of birds, butterflies, and LOADS of banana slugs on the trails. A nice peaceful spot for a walk or ride for sure.

I love a good walk, and Amager Faelled has a good doable size. The location is perfect - surrounded…read moreby the beautiful Islands Brygge and new architecture - you can easily get a quick feeling of being far far away. Not many people uses this area. The only down side is the lack of small signs. It has some nice paths, it would be cool to just have a small point of what directions they are leading.

Just walking distance from the Vestamager station, is this nature park. It is huge. I've visited…read moremany times but I still don't think I've explored the entire thing. It may look a little boring because at first glance, it seems to just be flatlands. But if you go a little deeper into the park, you will come across dense forests, ponds, and if you're lucky, wildlife. This park is perfect for biking, hiking, walking, going on a picnic, horse back riding, animal watching... you name it! When the weather is nice, expect to find many other people enjoying the park with you. However, people tend to visit this park come rain or shine. I love all of the added quirks that the Kommune has added to the park, like the wooden viking ship for kids to play around in, bird watching huts on top of the ponds, the nature center, and the animals. It's all very well-maintained as well! This park is a great place to bring kids or get out and connect with nature.

This place is very very very hidden. We discovered it by biking in the nature preserve in Amager…read moreand we wanted some water. There are some animals you can see, there is a cafe in the nature and there are grill areas where you can cook your own food with picnic areas. At the time when we went, there where many children playing around and families having picnic and also a bunch of young people making a BBQ. At the cafe you can buy ice cream refreshments and so on but I can not remember how the food menu looked like. Just remember they accept only Dankort and when you re so far out from the city it's hard to find an ATM. I don't know what other activities you can attend but it seems there is a lot going on which you can check from the site. I recommend this as a bike ride combined with a coffee stop here!
