Colourful houses, picturesque canals, and a cosy vacation: all this can be offered to tourists in the Danish capital. Copenhagen attracts tourists with its castles, lively neighbourhoods, and history.

This charming Scandinavian city is a pleasure to visit at any time of the year but there are several seasons when the city is fully open to tourists. Travel + Leisure found out when exactly to visit Copenhagen and what is especially worth seeing at this time.

Fewer tourists

If you're not too keen on crowds and want to explore the city in peace, April and October are the best months for you. At this time, the temperature is moderate and comfortable for walking and exploring the streets and parks. This is the time to spend tasting coffee and menus in local cafes, sitting on a summer terrace with a special urban atmosphere.

The best weather for Copenhagen

Summer is the best time to vacation in Denmark and its capital. Light days and nights here last up to 18 hours, so you will definitely have time to explore the local beauty. It's best to do this from June to August when the temperature remains at a moderate level. If this time suits you perfectly, you can visit local beaches, stroll along picturesque canals and visit one of the oldest theme parks in the world, Tivoli Gardens.

The best time to travel by bike

There is definitely no shortage of public transportation in this city, but for 60% of the locals, the bicycle is the favourite mode of transportation used on a daily basis. You can join this movement and get around the city by bike between May and September when the weather is perfect for getting around Copenhagen. In addition, you can take a bike tour and see the sights such as Vesterbro and Nørrebro.

The worst time to visit Copenhagen

In January, the sun in Copenhagen appears only from 9:00 to 15:30. However, this does not guarantee that you will be able to see the sun through the heavy gray clouds. Still, there is a chance for a pleasant vacation even at this time because you can visit the sparsely populated castles, museums and the large pedestrian shopping street Strøget.
