Denmark

In Northern Europe between the North Sea and the Baltic, Denmark is lined by more than 4,400 miles (7,200 km) of shoreline. Scattered along the coast, more than 400 islands offer extraordinary boating, fishing and of course windsurfing. The southernmost Scandinavian country, Denmark is an easy starting point to explore the region’s deep Viking heritage.

Denmark’s rolling countryside begs visitors to pedal the more than 6,200 miles (10,000 km) of cycle paths. Walk in the footsteps of Denmark native Hans Christian Andersen while discovering the inspiration for his literary accomplishments. Explore unique Danish design and creativity. Come and take part in the diverse and liveable city of Copenhagen, and connect with the welcoming culture of Denmark.
