Escape to Amager Fælled, a quiet stretch of wild nature right inside Copenhagen. Follow flat paths past lakes and meadows, watching birds and grazing sheep and goats as you go.
Full description
Amager Fælled is a large expanse of protected nature on Amager that was once a military area and now functions as a wild retreat inside the city limits. Flat, clear trails run past a lake, open meadows and varied habitats, and visitors regularly spot birds along with sheep, goats and horses grazing in the grassland.
Benches, bins and the occasional barbecue spot add basic comfort without taking away the quiet. It suits cyclists, joggers and walkers looking for peace, and its size means a ninety-minute visit only samples part of it.

A truly wild retreat within the city. We explored by bike, watched birds and goats, and enjoyed the quiet peacefulness.
