I love to come here to go for walks with my dog or go for bike rides. It's also great to come here for picnics. There's tons of different roads you can take, some long, some small, depending on what you're in the mood for (or have time for). It's all in all just a stunning place & it's great to be out in nature!

It's…read morenot the prettiest or the cleanest park in town but it still provides great walks, views, and interaction with "wildlife." Yes, this is the park where you can pet the sheep! (and the occasional llama). They are very friendly and especially friendly if you have food! Make sure to bring sheep-friendly foods like carrots if you want their attention. They are able to associate the sound of plastic bags with food so when they hear it, they will come running! But there's also tons of other things to do in this park, i.e. fish, hike, jog, picnic, etc. There are tons of trails throughout the park and really great views of the ocean. Just remember that the park is maintained only by volunteers so be sure to keep the area clean!

A tree-lined path runs alongside the water, giving it a calm vibe without trying too hard. It's peaceful, breezy, and very Malmö in that understated way. Perfect for a stroll, a pause, or just watching the water and pretending you're not on a schedule.

The day itself was my favorite kind of day, a gentle rainy one that most would consider unpleasant or dreary. Not me. I purposely don't take summer vacations or vacations to hot places. My goal for the first part of my day was to visit the Malmö Museum (Museer in Swedish) and Castle (Malmöhus Slott), but I also made time to really explore the Kungsparken, or King's Park, as well. This was really an unavoidable thing anyway as I had planned to continue to follow the canal into town to meet my friend after work for dinner, shopping, and goofing off. I'm big on the free outdoors when I travel, you can tell. I enjoyed the little clusters of flowers most, but also the canopy of different tree species and the series of trails, bridges and passageways along the canal, which borders one end of the King's Park. Weeping Willows create shade and privacy. I found the park very romantic! The many benches along the trail would have been perfect for a rest, but alas in the rain that was not an option. It's an 8 plus acre park, and a complete circle would be great exercise. The route I took through altogether was 2 miles of walking. If you're headed to the castle fortress and museum anyway, you can't miss it. Note: The Yelp listing also says "Zoo," but if there is one in here I didn't find it...

This park is nicely compartmentalized so there are many quieter nooks and you can't hear much traffic even though it's right next to busy Strandvejen in the heart of Hellerup.

We didn't have a lot of time to explore this beautiful park here in Copenhagen, but the areas we…read morewalked through were gorgeous. It is advertised as a romantic garden park, and that name seems very appropriate. There is lush, beautiful green everywhere, with flowering plants throughout. Several little lakes and cute bridges are found throughout. Swans, ducks, geese, pigeons, and seagulls were found in many places.There was an area for kids with many young families gathered for some special event the night we were there. At another part of the park, it looked like people were arriving for a concert of some kind later that night. There were a lot of people enjoying the park, but it never felt overwhelmingly crowded, as the park is so big. If I lived in Copenhagen, this park would be a regular for me.
