A family holiday in Denmark offers a wealth of things to see and do. Active families will enjoy Denmark's many outdoor possibilities, whether they're playing at activity parks such as Djurs and Fårup Sommerland, relaxing on the beach, biking through the countryside or ice-skating in the heart of a city in the winter season. Many Danish museums have introduced interactive exhibits designed with younger visitors in mind. And let us not forget the world-famous amusement parks such as Tivoli Gardens, Bakken and Legoland! They are all a true delight for kids of all ages.

Holiday on the Move If your family can't stay at the same place for very long, Denmark is an ideal destination. In our easy-to-navigate, compact nation you can cover a lot of ground in a short amount of time by car, bus or train.
Traveling by your own effort offers an added dimension to the trip, allowing you to have a look at the country from a different point of view. Maybe from a bicycle saddle. Denmark has an extensive network of clearly marked biking routes, and the hills are never steeper than even the smallest legs can handle. Learn more about planning your family’s own private Tour de Denmark here.
Denmark viewed from a canoe or kayak gliding along one of Denmark's beautiful waterways is an experience of nature, relaxation and active holiday for the whole family. Or how about exploring some of the countless small islands that are located in Danish waters which can be reached by small cozy ferries.

City or CountrysideIf you usually live in a city, a farmhouse stay is an instant success. Children or grandchildren are really impressed when they try milking a cow or get to pet farm animals. Click here to read more about planning a farmhouse holiday in Denmark.
If you normally live in the country, it is more likely that the changing of guard at Amalienborg Palace or a trip on Copenhagen’s new metro will leave the children wide-eyed in awe. Click here to read more about Copenhagen from a child's eye view.

Time Travel
Denmark is a modern country full of exciting things for children. Sometimes, however, it is fun to step back in time - and Denmark lets you do that as well. At historic experience centres and "living history" sites you can find yourself in the Iron Age, the Bronze Age, the days of Hans Christian Andersen or at another time in Danish history - complete with the sights, sounds and smells of the day.
Don't miss the opportunity of experiencing the Viking way of life. Visit one of Denmark’s Viking centers - maybe you get to experience travelling on a recreated Viking ship or spend a day at a Viking market, where modern-day "Vikings" demonstrate the crafts, skills, and sports of their proud Viking ancestors.
