Small-Group Copenhagen Running Tour

Jog around Copenhagen on a small-group running tour, led by a local guide. Aimed at regular runners who are comfortable running at a steady pace, the 5-mile (8-km) route covers the center of town. See iconic Copenhagen landmarks such as Christiansborg Palace, Amalienborg Castle and the Little Mermaid Statue, and discover tranquil city parks as well as quieter canal-side paths. The 1.5-hour workout is paced according to the group’s slowest runner, meaning nobody gets left behind.

Numbers are limited to eight on this small-group running tour, ensuring personalized attention from a guide.

Meet your guide in central Copenhagen, start with a quick chat about your running experience and then set off on your jog. All that’s required is a good pair of sneakers and a bottle of water!

The full route covers a distance of 5 miles (8km), and takes in many of Copenhagen’s top attractions. See the seat of the Danish parliament – Christiansborg Palace – and pass the Little Mermaid Statue as well as Amalienborg Castle, a beautiful building that’s home to Queen Margrethe II of Denmark.

Besides the city’s big-name sights, your route also includes stretches of Copenhagen’s distinctive green parkland. Explore sites such as the Citadel, and then pass alongside the picture-perfect canals that zigzag their way through the city. Exuding a provincial vibe, Copenhagen is home to several quaint-looking sets of ruins, and your guide will point out several of the best as you jog.

The pace is steady, allowing for relaxed conversation along the way. Chat with your guide, learning about Copenhagen’s culture and history and get insider tips for places to run independently, the best shops to visit or great places to eat and drink. After 1.5 hours of exploring the city, work your way to an area called Børskaj where your run finishes.
