Copenhagen is a city with dense bicycle traffic.
During rush hours it is especially important to
be aware of other people in the traffic. Here are
a couple of tips for getting around the city by
bicycle in a safe and comfortable way.
YOU

CPH?
CPH Cycling guidelines
#1 Keep right at all times
#2 Raise your hand up high before
you stop
#3 Give hand signals to the left or right
before turning
#4 Watch over your left shoulder before
overtaking cyclists
#5 Always overtake other cyclists
on the left
#6 Do not ride against the traffic flow or
on sidewalks/pavements, pedestrian
crossings or pedestrian streets
Useful tips for tourists
#7 Cycling is not allowed in parks in
central Copenhagen
#9 A short ring on the bell is often a
signal that a cyclist wants to pass
– so please keep to the right
#10 From dusk to dawn, bicycles must
be equipped with bicycle lights front
and rear
#11 It is prohibited to ride more than one
person on a bike
Illustration: Katrine Clante
#8 To turn left at an intersection you must
first cross to the opposite right corner
of the intersection where you stop and
wait for the traffic light to change before
continuing
The bike on the metro,
train and waterbus
Waterbus
You can bring your bicycle on all waterbuses.
You can see where the waterbuses dock on
the map. Remember to buy a ticket for your bicycle.
Metro
You can bring your bicycle on the Metro at
all hours except during the morning and
afternoon rush hours from 7:00-9:00 am and
15:30-17:30. Remember to buy a ticket for your bicycle.
S-train
You can bring your bicycle on the
metropolitan rail service (S-trains) at all hours
free of charge. However, you may neither enter nor exit the train with a bicycle at Nørreport Station during rush hours from 7:00-8:30
am and 15:30-17:00 due to congestion.
National rail
You may bring your bicycle on most national
and regional trains, including InterCity and
InterCityLyn trains, at all hours. You must
purchase a ticket for your bicycle. When
travelling with intercity trains you may also
be required to make a seat reservation for
your bicycle.
Copenhagen won
the title as the world’s
most bicycle-friendly
city in 2015
The Green Cycle Routes
The Harbour Circle
Copenhagen’s Green Cycle Routes are popular with commuters and recreational cyclists
alike. The total of 58km of Green Cycle Routes
in Copenhagen let you enjoy slow rides along
designated lanes in leafy surroundings away
from motor traffic.
The Copenhagen Harbour Circle is a new combined cycle route and footpath along the city’s
inner harbour.
The Green Cycle Routes let you experience
the changing of the seasons. Copenhageners
use the green spaces along the routes for
relaxation and sports activities.
The Green Cycle Routes run through historic
urban areas with parks, lakes and neighbourhoods that give each route its own unique
character. The Green Cycle Routes are marked
on the map with a green line.
Copenhagen bike share
As many other major cities, Copenhagen has a
bike share scheme that allows everyone to cycle
around the city.
The bicycles feature optional electric assistance and a tablet with a navigation system. The
bicycles are located at charging stations around
the city, and the bike share website guides you to
available bicycles.
The route guides you through regenerated docklands with vibrant urban life and past the city’s
landmark waterside attractions. The Harbour Circle is a shortcut to the rich diversity the city has
to offer and can be experienced on bike rides,
running trips and leisurely walks.
The Copenhagen Harbour Circle is a cycle route
and footpath that runs through an area of great
contrast with magnificent waterfront architecture
nestled alongside rickety houseboats. With its
waterside recreational activities, the Copenhagen
harbour area is the very essence of what makes
the city such a vibrant and liveable experience.
The Harbour Circle route not only offers a new
access way to the area but also a window to the
dynamic transformation Copenhagen is currently undertaking and offers a unique harbourside
experience in the heart of the city.
