Gita in bici di un giorno da Copenaghen a Roskilde

Get ready for a scenic ride from vibrant Copenhagen to the charming city of Roskilde! This relatively flat route covers about 51 km and is super cyclist-friendly—almost entirely on smooth asphalt and dedicated cycleways (hello, Danish cycling infrastructure!). You'll start in Copenhagen, Denmark’s lively capital known for its colorful harbor at Nyhavn, historic Tivoli Gardens, and world-class food scene.

Heading west, the route takes you through a mix of green spaces and quiet suburbs, so you can settle into a rhythm and enjoy the scenery. With only gentle elevation changes (never more than about 43 meters above sea level), it’s a comfortable spin for most riders.

Your destination, Roskilde, is famous for its impressive UNESCO-listed cathedral and the Viking Ship Museum, both well worth exploring after your ride. The majority of the journey avoids busy roads, making it peaceful and safe—perfect whether you’re commuting or just out for a leisurely day trip.

Don’t forget to pack a snack and maybe swing by a bakery along the way—this is Denmark, after all!
