コペンハーゲンの天然記念物・トップ18

I did a hike there in September. It was a nice landscape and easy to walk. In my opinion you don't need to see the amusement park, it seems really strange in this landscape. I would recommend you to take a binocular with you as you sometimes see deers in some distance. I only saw a few deers during the hike, most of them in the start/end region so don't expect to see them everywhere. I wanted to combine this hike with Frilandsmuseet, but it was closed this day.

Probably Copenhagen's most visited bronze statue. A must-see on any city tour.

Damhussøen, or Damhussøen, is located in Copenhagen between Vanløse, Rødovre, Roskildevej, and Damhusengen, extending to Jyllingevej in the north. The green space is connected to Grøndalsparken, Krogebjergparken, and Vigerslevparken. The lake covers an area of 46 hectares. The dam in the south, over which Roskildevej is carried, was built in connection with the construction of the road in 1621. The aim was to ensure a stable water level in the lake and a better water supply to Copenhagen via Grøndalsåen and Ladegårdsåen. In 1849, additional dams were built, separating the northern part of the lake, Bagsøen, from the southern part. The Harrestrup Å, which formerly ran through the lake, was diverted into a ditch with dams on each side on the eastern side of the meadow in 1938. At the same time, Bagsøen was drained, creating Damhusengen. The lake and meadow were granted park status in 1941 and have been protected since 1966. The lake is named Damhus Sø after Damhuset, which is actually named after the lake formerly known as Langvaddam or simply Dammen. The area is also known for its inn. The small local amusement park was demolished in 2016.

Idyllic with a beautiful cycle path🤩

The area is huge and you can spend hours hiking and watching animals

The Gefion fountain in Copenhagen shows the statue of the goddess Gefion from Germanic mythology, who is said to have turned her four sons into oxen. The legend says that the ox team tore a large hole in the middle of Sweden while ploughing and hurled the land mass into the Baltic Sea. The hole in Sweden today forms Lake Vänern. The island of Zealand is said to have emerged from the piece of land that was torn out.

The Little Mermaid sculpture is made of bronze and granite stone and is inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale about the mermaid who sacrifices everything to be united with the young, beautiful prince on land. Every morning and every evening she rises from the seabed and longs for the prince from her rock in the water. The story of the Little Mermaid is known to many children today not only from Hans Christian Andersen's original version, but also from Disney's version of the same name.

good place to stop and eat, has tables and spot to sit and enjoy the view
