Lush forest with small lakes and forest glades, providing many habitats for animals and plants. The forest is full of ancient monuments, which are protected and well preserved in the forest. You can use the primitive campsite at the eastern end of the forest.

Wear comfortable walking shoes and bring binoculars to fully enjoy the birdwatching opportunities in the wetlands. Visit early in the morning for the best chance to see a variety of bird species in a peaceful atmosphere.

From the southern end of Nivå Strandpark, enjoy sweeping views over the fine sandy beach and the wooden pier stretching into the Øresund. You will have a peaceful break during your ride or hike, with the nearby nature reserve offering quiet trails and rich birdlife. Combine coastal scenery with a taste of local harbour life just a short walk away.

Nestled between protected salt meadows and lush forests, Nivå Harbour offers a scenic starting point for both cycling and hiking adventures. Stroll or ride along the coastline to enjoy peaceful beaches, vibrant birdlife, and charming spots like the local art collection and historic brickworks. With easy train connections to cultural highlights such as the Louisiana Museum, Helsingør or Copenhagen, it’s the perfect base for nature and culture lovers alike.

Good place to stop for food and a toilet when biking Strandvej between Copenhagen and Elsinore.

In Humlebæk you can find many beautiful houses, some of them directly on the beach, which still have a thatched roof.

In September 2021, the city council and the port authority decided to work together on the development and expansion of Rungsted Harbor to ensure that the harbor remains an attractive place for everyone who enjoys being on, in and by the water. The project includes both an extension of the piers and the creation of an event space with, among other things, a play area, benches and sun terraces, as well as an expanded and more varied beach area with an associated rock island and the possibility of establishing a sauna. The harbor expansion also includes better traffic safety for soft road users, more parking spaces as well as more bathing bridges, launch towers, viewing platforms and a ramp to the water for the walking disabled.

Nice little harbour with a couple of shops and restaurants on the middle pier and great views over to Tunø and Sweden behind.
