Gita in bici di un giorno da Roskilde a Copenaghen

Here’s a classic journey across Zealand: biking from historic Roskilde to vibrant Copenhagen! Your route covers about 48 km and is almost entirely on smooth, paved surfaces—so you can expect a comfortable ride. Roskilde is famous for its stunning cathedral (a UNESCO site) and Viking Ship Museum, making it the perfect starting point steeped in Danish history.

Heading east, most of your journey follows dedicated cycleways and quiet roads. The route is mostly flat, with just a few gentle ascents and a max elevation that never gets too dramatic—ideal for enjoying the countryside and coastal views without breaking too much of a sweat.

The scenery transitions from Roskilde’s laid-back town atmosphere to the energetic capital, where you’ll finish your ride in the heart of Copenhagen. Once there, you can reward yourself with coffee in Nyhavn or a stroll by the city’s canals. All in all, this is a fantastic day trip that blends history, nature, and a big city finish!
