Ryvangens Naturpark Copenhagen
A slice of nature
If you happen to visit the neighboring Memorial Park (which you really should consider doing), then why not treat yourself to a little walk in the surrounding slice of nature afterwards?
Edged between Memorial Park, the train tracks, and a residential neighborhood, this is a lovely little oasis. There’s a small lake, and if you’re lucky, you can catch a glimpse of the residing heron. Depending on the season, you might also meet a few sheeps or horses in a pop-up enclosure.
People are enjoying this patch of nature year round, and you’ll almost be certain to meet at least a few joggers and bikers, a tired parent trying to walk their baby to sleep in a stroller, or folks simply taking a break on one of the benches. There are several designated spots for campfires, making it a popular place for picnics in the summer.
From the park it’s just a short walk to the ocean at Tuborg harbor, and since it’s located right between Hellerup Station and Ryparken Station, it’s easy to include on your to-do-list of Copenhagen adventures.
The nature park is always open, and it's (naturally) free.

Plenty of space
What's especially great about this patch of nature is the huge grass lawn. A lot of people come here to play soccer, frisbee or to walk their dogs.

Tutten
As Danish as it gets
"Tutten" in Copenhagen has probably the best smørrebrød in town. Some of the city's restaurants are good but nothing comes close. A truly Danish experience

Amager Records
Music on vinyl
"Amager Records" is my favorite record store on my island in Copenhagen. Small and cramped as it should be, the super-helpful owners are also jazz fans!
