Sortie rapide à vélo de Copenhague à Herlev

Set off from the heart of Copenhagen and enjoy a relaxed 15 km ride to Herlev, a cozy suburb northwest of the city. Most of your route flows along smooth dedicated cycleways (this is Denmark, after all!) with almost the whole journey on pristine asphalt. The elevation’s gentle, so you won’t be slogging up any big hills—just mild ascents that are perfect for enjoying the fresh air.

As you pass through Copenhagen, you’ll see a blend of city life, local cafes, and leafy green spaces, gradually giving way to quieter residential neighborhoods. The ride is over two-thirds on bike-only paths, making it friendly whether you’re commuting, exercising, or just exploring.

Herlev itself is known for its calm suburban vibe, but it’s also home to Scandinavia’s tallest hospital building, Herlev Hospital, which is easy to spot as you approach. With such good cycling infrastructure and scenic urban transitions, this route is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a taste of Greater Copenhagen’s cycling culture—safe, beautiful, and effortlessly enjoyable.
