In West of Copenhagen, Vridsløselille awaits with captivating stories behind its green gates, the Heerup Museum with colourful junk art, and Espehus Kro with classic Danish open sandwiches of the highest quality – three experiences that showcase the charm and creativity of the Western Suburbs.
In Copenhagen west lies several of ‘The Forgotten Giants’ – giant wooden sculptures created by artist Thomas Dambo. They are scattered throughout the countryside like an adventurous treasure hunt, where you can explore and find them one by one.
Getting around outside Copenhagen is smooth and convenient thanks to frequent trains, buses, and well-connected cycling paths. You can even bring your bike on the S-train, making it effortless to combine longer distances with scenic rides. With such seamless connections, exploring the area feels both easy and flexible without needing a car.
