Urban Gardens & Wild Nature
Copenhagen boasts numerous parks and gardens that are perfect places to relax, sunbathe, have a picnic with friends or just read a book. Copenhagen Municipality is driven by a nature-based urban development model, providing green spaces for humans as well as non-human animals. Instead of sterile green lawns, you'll see a jumble of wildflowers and herbs like Yarrow, Pulmonaria and Asters that are swarmed by eager insects.
The King’s Garden is a popular spot for Copenhageners while Frederiksberg Gardens boasts lush open areas and canals. Explore the district of St. Kjeld's neighbourhood on Østerbro where wild plants and freshly harvested vegetables are a common sight. Additionally, some of Copenhagen's cemeteries are commonly used as green breathing spaces for leisurely walks.

CopenHill
CopenHill is spectacular and innovative — an artificial ski slope and hiking area built on top of the cutting-edge waste-to-energy plant. This remarkable facility not only provides an exciting recreational space but also supplies energy to tens of thousands of homes and businesses.
A guided tour will take you to the very top by lift, where you'll learn about the entire building: the architecture, the vision, sustainability practices and the ski slope. At the summit of this massive shimmering metal structure, you'll also be rewarded with an excellent view of Copenhagen's downtown.
Feel free to bring your own skiing and snowboarding equipment, or rent some from the local shop. The slope is open year-round since it does not rely on snow. If skiing is not your thing, how about climbing? The climbing wall at CopenHill is the world's tallest at 85 metres.
