How many regions to visit: Two or three regions is the number I would advise for a trip of one to two weeks. Denmark’s distances are short, but each region repays a few unhurried days of cycling, walking or simply sitting in a harbor town, and every extra region costs a half day in transfers and about US$15 to 40 in tickets. Four or more gets you a list of stations instead of a feel for the country. Fewer regions with deeper time gives a backpacker the most for the money.Choosing between kinds of regions: City-based regions give the best museums, food and nightlife, and the easiest transport, but they cost the most in time spent in crowds and in money for beds and meals.

How many regions to visit: Two or three regions is the number I would advise for a trip of one to two weeks. Denmark’s distances are short, but each region repays a few unhurried days of cycling, walking or simply sitting in a harbor town, and every extra region costs a half day in transfers and about US$15 to 40 in tickets. Four or more gets you a list of stations instead of a feel for the country. Fewer regions with deeper time gives a backpacker the most for the money.Choosing between kinds of regions: City-based regions give the best museums, food and nightlife, and the easiest transport, but they cost the most in time spent in crowds and in money for beds and meals. Coastal and rural Jutland costs less to sleep in and offers space, but needs a bicycle or car, which adds US$15 to 25 a day for a rental bike or far more for a car. The islands are the slowest and most comfortable to unwind in, though ferries add US$15 to 60 per crossing and shorten your flexibility. For first-timers, one city region plus one coastal region offers the best balance. Cyclists and hikers should weight rural areas; those short on time should keep to the rail corridor.What it costs: A realistic budget is DKK 700 to 1,100 a day (about US$100 to 160) for a backpacker using hostels, supermarket food and public transport. A hostel dorm bed runs DKK 200 to 400, campsites DKK 90 to 150 per person, and a basic meal DKK 80 to 150 at a bakery or street stall versus DKK 250 to 400 in a restaurant. Museum entry typically sits at DKK 100 to 180, though many national sites and parks are free. Regional trains cost DKK 100 to 350 per leg, so a Rejsekort or discounted Orange tickets bought ahead save money. Wild camping is mostly illegal, but designated primitive shelters and forest sites are free or cost under DKK 30 in many state forests, and are a real saving.Safety and cultural points: Denmark is among the safest countries in the world, with petty theft the main concern, mostly pickpocketing in Copenhagen’s central station and tourist streets. Bicycles are the most commonly stolen item, so lock yours properly. Cyclists have priority on dedicated lanes, and stepping into one is the most likely way a visitor gets hurt or shouted at. Locals value punctuality, queue order and quiet in trains. Cash is rarely used, so carry a card. Coastal swimming requires attention to currents on the North Sea side, and flags on beaches are worth following.
