Hiring a campervan in Copenhagen opens up two countries at once: the whole of Denmark, from the island of Zealand to the tip of Skagen, and Sweden, less than an hour's drive away across the Øresund Bridge. North of the capital, the castles of Kronborg and Frederiksborg and the Kattegat beaches can be reached in a day; to the south, the chalk cliffs of Møn tower over the Baltic. Our partner company, Anywhere Campers, offers both campervans for two and family motorhomes with up to six berths from Copenhagen.

Short distances, flat and well-kept roads, bridges and ferries between the islands: Denmark is well suited to a first motorhome trip.

North of Copenhagen, the coast road follows the Øresund to the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Humlebæk, then on to Helsingør and Kronborg Castle, Hamlet's castle, a World Heritage Site. The beaches of Hornbæk and the fishing port of Gilleleje come before Frederiksborg Castle in Hillerød, set on its lake. Return via Roskilde, its cathedral of the Danish kings and its Viking Ship Museum.

Heading south, the cliff of Stevns Klint, a World Heritage Site for the geological layer marking the extinction of the dinosaurs, opens the road to Møn. The tall white chalk cliffs of Møns Klint drop into a turquoise sea, and the island is renowned for its very clear night sky. The long sandy beaches of Marielyst, on Falster, round off the loop before heading back to the capital.

The Great Belt Bridge leads to Funen and Odense, birthplace of Hans Christian Andersen. You then cross Jutland via Ribe, the oldest town in the country, on the edge of the Wadden Sea, then Aarhus and Aalborg, before reaching Skagen: at Grenen, the North Sea and the Kattegat meet. To return to Zealand without retracing your route, a ferry links Aarhus to Sjællands Odde.

Weather and seasons

When to go in Copenhagen?

Best time

June and September

June, September
highs 18 to 20 °C, lows 13 °C

The best months to leave from Copenhagen: up to 13 hours of sunshine a day in June, a sea still at 18 °C in September and campsites quieter than in high summer. The coasts of Zealand and Møn stay mild in September, even if the evenings turn cooler.

High season

July and August

July to August
highs 21 °C, lows 15 °C

Peak season, the time of the Danish summer holidays and the big festivals, such as Roskilde in late June and early July. The sea reaches 19 °C, but July is also one of the wettest months: pack rain gear and book your vehicle and campsites early.

April, May and October

April to May, October
highs 11 to 16 °C, lows 4 to 9 °C

Cool but bright shoulder seasons in spring: May already brings long days and parks in bloom. October is the wettest month of the year in Copenhagen, and some campsites close as early as autumn: check their opening dates before you set off.

Winter

November to March

November to March
highs 4 to 8 °C, lows 1 to 5 °C

The Danish winter is grey, damp and windy, with two to three hours of sunshine a day in December and January. It rarely freezes hard, but only a few campsites stay open: a well-heated vehicle is essential to enjoy the Christmas markets and Tivoli lit up.

Practical tips

Everything to know before hitting the road

The Great Belt Bridge is tolled

To reach Funen and Jutland, the Great Belt Bridge is a toll bridge, with a price that depends on the length of the vehicle: a large motorhome pays more than a campervan. The Little Belt bridges, further west, are free. The ferry between Sjællands Odde and Aarhus or Ebeltoft is another option, also paid.

Environmental zones

Copenhagen and Frederiksberg, like Aarhus, Odense and Aalborg, have camera-enforced environmental zones that also apply to motorhomes and diesel vans. A recent rental vehicle registered in Denmark is normally allowed in; ask the rental company to confirm and check the rules in force.

Lights on and parking disc

In Denmark, dipped headlights or daytime running lights must be on at all times, even in bright sunshine. In time-limited parking zones, a parking disc, the “P-skive”, goes behind the windscreen. Paid parking is usually settled by bank card or by app.

No wild camping outside authorised places

Wild camping in a motorhome is banned in Denmark outside designated places. Campsites are plentiful, and many marinas offer motorhome pitches with electricity and waste disposal: good stops on the southern islands and along the coasts of Jutland.

What travellers ask

Your questions about a road trip in Copenhagen

Where can I pick up a campervan in Copenhagen?

Our partner company in Copenhagen is Anywhere Campers, which has its depot there. The exact address and the vehicle handover time are given in your booking confirmation. Allow a little time for the presentation of the vehicle and its equipment, and take extra care when leaving the city: cycle lanes are everywhere and bikes are very numerous.

How much does it cost to hire a campervan in Copenhagen?

The price depends on the season, the length of hire and the vehicle: a campervan for two and a six-seat motorhome are not priced the same. Run a search with your dates to see real prices, mandatory fees included, and book directly. On top of the trip budget come campsites, fuel and, depending on your route, toll bridges.

Can I drive to Sweden across the Øresund Bridge?

Yes: Malmö is less than an hour away via the Øresund tunnel and bridge, a toll crossing with a price that varies with the length of the vehicle. Further north, the ferry between Helsingør and Helsingborg crosses in about twenty minutes. Check in the offer conditions that Sweden is covered by the insurance, and keep your ID with you: checks may take place at the border.

Which vehicle should I choose to travel in Denmark?

The offers observed from Copenhagen range from the Van for 2, for two people, to the Sunlight A70 over-cab motorhome with six berths, via the low-profile Carado T-447, Sunlight T 68 and Adria Matrix, with four to five berths. Most come with a manual or automatic gearbox. A campervan is enough for the small roads of Møn; a family will be more comfortable in a low-profile or over-cab model.

Can I do a one-way trip to Funen or Jutland?

Odense, Aarhus, Aalborg, Billund and Aabenraa are also departure cities of our partner companies. A one-way trip depends on the company's depots and may involve a fee: enter your return city when searching to see the available offers, fees included. Billund and Aalborg have an airport, handy for flying home at the end of the trip.

First rental of this type of vehicle in a professional context where the rental must take place from France to Canada. Many questions and Cooldrive (Marlène) has been a valuable support in guiding my choices. Efficiency and responsiveness beforehand, and on-site a vehicle and service that met our expectations. No complaints. Great!

Frequently asked questions

FAQ — Campervan and motorhome hire in Copenhagen

What licence do I need to drive a motorhome in Denmark?

A category B licence is enough for campervans and motorhomes under 3.5 tonnes, which covers most rental vehicles. A licence issued outside the European Union may require an international driving permit. The minimum age and years of driving required by Anywhere Campers are shown in the offer conditions.

How do I get to the depot from Copenhagen Airport?

Kastrup Airport, on the island of Amager, is linked to central Copenhagen by metro and by train, in around fifteen minutes. Depending on the depot address given in your confirmation, a taxi may be easier with luggage. Let the rental company know your landing time to arrange the vehicle handover.

Can I visit central Copenhagen in a motorhome?

Better to avoid it: the streets are narrow and parking spaces for large vehicles are rare and expensive. The easiest option is to stay at a campsite on the outskirts and reach Nyhavn, Tivoli or Christiania by bike, suburban train or bus. Copenhagen is one of the most bike-friendly cities in the world, and hiring a bike there is very easy.

When should I book a campervan in Copenhagen?

For July and August, several months ahead: it is the summer holiday period in Denmark as in neighbouring countries, and coastal campsites fill up fast. In June and September, a few weeks are often enough. Campervans for two and automatic vehicles are usually the first to be booked.

Do I need Danish kroner to travel in Denmark?

Denmark's currency is the Danish krone, not the euro. Bank cards are accepted almost everywhere, including at campsites, car parks and fuel stations, many of which are unmanned. In Sweden, across the Øresund, you pay in Swedish kronor, there too mostly by card.

Can I go to Bornholm in a motorhome?

Yes, the island of Bornholm, isolated in the Baltic Sea, can be reached by ferry from Køge, south of Copenhagen, or from Ystad, in Sweden, after crossing the Øresund. Motorhome spaces sell out quickly in summer: book early, declaring the exact dimensions of the vehicle. On the island, granite rocks, round churches and fishing ports can be explored in a few days.

About us

Why start a motorhome trip from Copenhagen

Copenhagen is the natural starting point for discovering Denmark by motorhome: in a few hours you go from the royal castles of Zealand to the chalk cliffs of Møn, then the Great Belt Bridge opens up Funen, Jutland and the dunes of Skagen. The country is compact, the stages are short and the campsites well equipped, which leaves more time for sightseeing than for driving.

Its position on the Øresund also makes it a gateway to Sweden and the rest of Scandinavia. Anywhere Campers offers a wide choice there, from campervans for two to family motorhomes, and Odense, Aarhus or Aalborg, other departure cities of our partners, make a one-way trip possible. From June to September, the long Nordic days give each stage even more time.
