God dag on the Øresund! Our bike tour along the Øresund connects the coasts of the Danish island of Sealand and the Swedish province of Skåne. Lively harbour towns, breathtaking coastlines, red wooden houses and the typical Danish-Swedish serenity – our bike tour along the Øresund is the perfect way to get to know the country and the people of both countries by bike with almost no climbing. You start our bike tour at the Øresund in Copenhagen, Denmark's capital. The cosmopolitan and modern city will delight you with its mix of fascinating sights and maritime flair. On your way along the Øresund coast, get to know the world-famous Louisiana Museum of Modern Art and the impressive Kronberg Slot in the lively harbour town of Helsingør. By ferry you cross the narrowest part of the Øresund and reach Sweden in Helsingborg. Along the coast you will discover Landskrona, originally intended as the capital of the Nordic countries, and the island of Ven, made famous by the astronomer Tycho Brahe. Inland, you will get to know the university town of Lund. Lund Cathedral is one of the most important in Scandinavia. The destination of our bike tour along the Øresund is Malmö. Landmarks of the southern Swedish metropolis are the Turning Torso and the Øresund Bridge, which connects Malmö with Copenhagen. Don't forget to bring your swimsuit! On the way, many sandy beaches offer refreshing moments and relaxing views of the sea.

Day 1: Individual arrival in Copenhagen

Your bike tour along Øresund starts in Denmark's capital Copenhagen. As one of the oldest capitals in the world, the city impresses with a wealth of sights and experiences. A walk to Amalienborg Castle and the Little Mermaid at the harbour is just as worthwhile as a visit to the nostalgic Tivoli amusement park and one of the many world-class museums. There will be a personal tour information session at your starting hotel in the evening. If you have booked a rental bike, you will also receive it at this time.

Day 2: Copenhagen – Vedbæk Region, approx. 25 km

Heading north, you start the first stage of your bike tour along the Øresund. A first stop is just beyond the city limits of Copenhagen. Bellevue beach with its long jetties is ideal for taking a dip in the crystal-clear waters of the Øresund. With a view of the strait and the sea breeze in your luggage, you cycle through Jægersborg Dyrehave. The game park impresses with its large population of roe deer, old oaks and the Eremitageslottet hunting lodge.

Day 3: Vedbæk – Helsingborg, approx. 30 km + ferry ride

Enjoy the drive along the Øresund coast with magnificent views of the sea. A longer stopover is worthwhile at the Louisiana Museum in Humlebæk. It is considered one of the world's most important museums for modern and contemporary art. Located directly on the Øresund, it presents works by famous international and Danish artists. In Helsingør, visit the impressive Kronborg Slot. It became world-famous as the setting for Shakespeare's Hamlet. Take the ferry to Helsingborg in Sweden.

Day 4: Helsingborg – Landskrona, approx. 30 km

Before you set off on the third stage of your bike tour along the Øresund, take a walk through Helsingborg. The city has Sweden's second largest harbour. The square brick tower Kärnan is located near the harbour. It dominates the silhouette of the city. From the roof platform of the tower you have a wonderful view over the city and the Øresund. You cycle along the Swedish coast to your destination for the day, Landskrona. The town's landmark is the former citadel made of red brickwork.

Day 5: Landskrona – Lund, approx. 50 km

If you have some time left in Landskrona, take a ferry trip to the island of Ven. The famous astronomer Tycho Brahe once conducted research on Ven. There is a museum dedicated to him. Leaving Landskrona behind, follow the cycle path along the coast. Head inland to reach the university town of Lund. Visit the medieval town centre and Lund Cathedral. Sweden's oldest and most important cathedral has an architecture that is unusual for Scandinavia. The astronomical clock at the entrance portal of the cathedral is striking.

Day 6: Lund – Malmö, approx. 25 km

The last stage of your bike tour along Øresund takes you back to the sea. Relax on the white sandy beach of Lomma Beach and enjoy the view of Copenhagen opposite and the Øresund Bridge. In your destination Malmö, the Turning Torso is considered the city's new landmark. The futuristic residential tower is the tallest building in Scandinavia. The nearby old town presents itself with historical buildings worth seeing, colourful half-timbered houses, small shops and cosy restaurants.
