More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the coach at Copenhagen Central Station with a suitcase that still smells of airport coffee and a map that will soon be dog-eared. The city’s blocky Rococo façades and the bronze of The Little Mermaid sit a short tram ride away, but this trip is a moving portrait: capitals, lakes, glaciers and fjords stitched together by highways and ferry decks.
