Cycling: Copenhagen - Malmo

Denmark & Sweden

Denmark and Sweden are the ideal locations for a cycling holiday. Fabulous landscapes are just waiting to be discovered. The scenery will change between breath-taking coastlines, small, idyllic harbor towns and extensive nature reserves. Enchanting beaches will entice you to swim or just stay a while, and the small towns will surprise you with their numerous cultural attractions.

For the most part, the route follows the coast, offering breath-taking views of the Baltic Sea. The vibrant metropolises Copenhagen and Malmo can ideally be explored on two wheels. Aside from that, plenty of culinary highlights also await you. Take a break from everyday life and immerse yourself in the ultimate bicycle holiday experience.

Itinerary

The Danish capital has a lot to offer, so we recommend arriving early. Take a stroll through the historical city center or visit the well-known amusement park Tivoli.

You will leave Copenhagen and make your way north. Today’s stage leads you along the Öresund, the strait between Zealand in Denmark and Skåne, also known as Scania, in Sweden.

With the Baltic Sea in view at all times, you will soon arrive at the well-known bathing beach Bellevue. A quick dip in the cool water is the perfect refreshment. It is also worth taking a short detour to Dyrehavsbakken, the oldest existing amusement park in the world.

Today you will again ride along the coastline with magnificent views of the Baltic Sea. On the way, we recommend stopping at the Louisiana Museum – the most significant museum for modern and contemporary art in Denmark. In Helsingør, it is worth visiting the Kronborg castle. Finally, after a short ferry ride, you will arrive at Helsingborg on the Swedish side.

Take some time to discover the vibrant city of Helsingborg. The wide range of cultural activities and the picturesque old quarter are sure to enchant you. Your bicycle tour will lead you along the Swedish coastline today.

Along the way, you will pass through many small and idyllic fishing villages. From Landskrona, you can make a short excursion to the Ven island in Öresund. The entire island is a nature reserve, so it offers unique scenery which can be explored ideally by bike.

In Landskrona, you should definitely visit the citadel in the city center. However, this town is not only for art and culture enthusiasts - the magnificent beaches promise cooling refreshment.

Back on the bike path, you will follow the coast for most of the way. You will peddle through a few gorgeous nature reserves. The final part brings you inland, and the goal of today’s stage is the university town Lund.

Back at the coast, the flat beaches of Lomma will entice you to stay a while. Just a little further along, you will reach the final goal of this bicycle tour – Malmo. It is the third largest city in Sweden and has many attractions. The picturesque old quarter and the Malmöhus castle should not be missed.

Your tour ends after breakfast. You are welcome to book an extension or to avail of our transfer service back to Copenhagen.

Tour character

For the most part, this is an easy bicycle tour through flat and slightly hilly landscapes. It is mostly on separate bike paths or small secondary roads with little traffic. There will only be more traffic to deal with in the towns and cities. The signposting along the route is good.

Schöne Velotour
Uns hat die Reise sehr gut gefallen. Wir mussten nicht so viel km pro Tag fahren und so hatten wir genügend Zeit, die Umgebung zu genissen, z.B. den Strand. Wir hatten zudem sehr grosses Glück mit dem Wetter. Was es zu kritisieren gibt: In Lund war der Weg nur zu einem Hotel beschrieben, leider was das nicht unseres und einen Stadtplan hatten wir auch nicht. Aber wir fanden es:-)

Gelungene Reise auch ohne Velos (Wegen eines Unfalls meiner Frau, konnten wir nicht velofahren. Wir haben die Tour mit dem OeV gemacht).
Kopenhagen, Helsingborg, Lund und Malmö sind sehr schöne Städte.

Besten Dank für Ihr Reisefeedback. Der Weg ist das Ziel. Wie man das Ziel erreicht ist egal. Schön, dass wir nun wissen, dass diese Tour nicht nur mit dem Velo sondern auch mit den ÖV’s funktioniert. Wir danken Ihnen vielmals, dass Sie trotz Verletzung an Ihrer Reise festgehalten haben und freuen uns sehr, dass Sie eine gute Zeit im Hohen Norden hatten. Ich wünsche Ihrer Frau von Herzen gute Besserung und eine schnelle Genesung.
