Day 5 - Helsingør to Hillerød (About 54 km/34 miles)

This cycling leg in Denmark allows you to visit two of Denmark's most beautiful castles: 

Fredensborg Palace
Frederiksborg Castle
You start the tour along the coast to Hornbæk, a small fishing village that is worth a break and a swim in the sea. Then you reach the small village of Esrum with its historical abbey, which is really worth a visit. Your journey continues along one of the deepest lakes in Denmark towards Hillerød. You can even visit the Queen's spring and autumn residence, Fredensborg Palace, if you extend the tour by about 10 km.

Day 6 - Hillerød to Copenhagen (approx. 38 km/24 miles)

You drive to Copenhagen through idyllic landscapes, beautiful forests and wetlands with rich birdlife. You will be impressed by the richness of nature in this densely populated area just a stone's throw from the capital.

You will also be amazed at how easy it is to cycle from the green north of Zeeland to Copenhagen. While the first 18 kilometers to Farum are on winding paths and narrow roads, the last 20 kilometers of the route are along the new supercykelsti (Cycle Superhighway), which brings all cyclists on the move to Copenhagen.

When you get to Nørrebro, which is one of the most colorful areas of Copenhagen, you have to slow down and blend in with the many cyclists.
Overnight in the center of Copenhagen.
