Cycling around Copenhagen

Datum:
06.05.2016
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour
Tourlänge:
6:00h
Entfernung:
63,6km

We started directly from WakeUpCopenhagen with the bikes that we had rented from there the day before. Our first goal, Utterslev Mose, is towards the northwest from Copenhagen center, so we cycled towards Nørreport, first. At Søerne (The Lakes!), we cycled them up and down once---more, because we were unsure, first, of where to continue, but then also to enjoy this nice area! :-) After that, we followed Tagensvej towards Bispebjerg. At the graveyard of Bispebjerg, we got to see the impressive church Grundtvigskirken, reminding us strongly of the also impressive church in Reykjavík, Iceland. From there, we continued towards Utterslev Mose, a nice recreational area, previously part of the defense system of Copenhagen. There, we met the cycling path #9, which continues along Vestvolden---an >>>

Copenhagen-Humlebæk-Copenhagen

Datum:
05.05.2016
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour
Tourlänge:
6:00h
Entfernung:
71,9km

We had a room in WakeUpCopenhagen (Borgergade) and rented bikes---typical Danish bikes with three gears---from there. We headed first towards Kastellet and aimed then at Strandvejen, which leads all the way towards the north. Cycling in Copenhagen, Denmark, is really great: lots of space for cyclists, not much up and down---nice and easy! :-) Near the Tuborg factory, we met the cycling path #9, which connects to the north along Strandvejen. Cycling along Strandvejen is nice with lots of great views over the sea to the east. At Skodsborg, we should have understood that cycling path #9 is continuing in parallel to Strandvejen---a little further away from the sea. Instead, we continued along Strandvejen, which was OK, but a little less fun, since no cycling path is available at this stretch. >>>

Lyderhorn

Datum:

Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
12,9km

Quick excursion to Lyderhorn: First with the bike along Bjørgeveien and up to the new highway crossing near Liavatnet; then from there, walking, westwards and up in the direction of Grøvledalen (between Skarpafjellet and Lyderhorn). From the saddle, basically right underneath the power lines, then northwards and towards Lyderhorn. After a bit of up and down, the actual ascent to Lyderhorn is steep and nice. Down from Lyderhorn, I first followed the path that connects to Kjøkkelvikveien, further down, in the west of Lyderhorn, but before actually turning right in order to descend towards the west, I turned left (and towards the east), searching a connection to the path that I had taken up. I found my way, but mostly without a path, though. I followed that path I had take up (from Skarpafjellet) >>>

Store Kongshaugen & Harafjellet -- another bicycle round

Datum:
05.09.2015
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
24,5km

Let's get some fresh air in the nice weather -- even if there isn't much time! :-) On my bicycle and off towards the west! :-) In Loddefjord, I turned left (and southwards) and passed by Håkonsvern. Right afterwards and shortly before Mathopen, I turned right and started my short but (very) steep ascent to Store Kongshaugen -- what a name for a comparably small hill! :-) Even though not very high, one still can enjoy great views in all directions from its top. I returned down on the same steep and old road, before then continuing via Mathopen and Hilleren towards Alvøpollen. I followed the road around Småvatnet to the sports arena of Alvøen. There I found the connection to the path that stretches along Storavatnet. From this path, I made a short detour up Harafjellet (also a rather >>>

Feråsen, Sørås, and Skeisåsen -- an evening cycling round

Datum:
02.09.2015
Tourcharakter:
Fahrradtour gemischt
Tourlänge:
2:30h
Entfernung:
28,3km

After work, I needed some fresh air. After only few minutes of decision making, I got on my bicycle and started a quick round south of Fyllingsdalen. My first goal was Feråsen -- an easy-to-overlook small hill between Søreide, Steinsvik and Sandsli. I approached Feråsen from the east and ended up in a small street called Feråslia. I left my bicycle there and continued without. I found a simple trail that looked as if it would surround Feråsen. After having followed it somewhat half around Feråsen, I decided to simply ascend to the top -- with or without a path. While steep on this side, this worked easily and quickly, but I ended up on the neighboring small hill, right next to Feråsen. I changed over -- just to find out that the highest point is mostly part of a (private) garden. >>>
