Copenhagen/Northern suburbs

The Northern suburbs is a green suburban neighborhood north of Copenhagen. The ghetto of the wealthy and the Whiskey belt; the nicknames are many, and the Northern suburbs is indeed home to most of the city's well off population, but to casual visitors the difference may be subtle, due to the high income equality of Denmark and heavy taxation of the highest earners (up to 69%). The neighborhood does however have more than its fair share of royal mansions, meticulously kept parks and golf courses.

An introduction to Copenhagen/Northern suburbs

Originally heavily forested, a legacy still visible today with its many parks, lakes and forest and the area became a favorite excursion destination for city dwellers during the early days of Denmark's industrialization, where trams and trains would be full of people going to the entertainment areas north of the city on Sundays and other holidays - most of the places have since closed down, but the small but charming Dyrehavsbakken amusement park and the oldest still functioning in the world, and the nearby horse racing tracks and surrounding forest continues to draw hordes of city folk on public holidays and weekends, as will a trip on the hundred year old tour Baadfarten ferries sailing on the lakes and canals near Lyngby, will give you a taste of days gone by - these canals and lakes are actually remains of an elaborate defence for the city, where the canals would draw water of the lakes to flood the low-lying areas to thwart would-be invaders.

The industrialization had another lasting impact on the neighborhood, as the earliest factories in the nation shot up around the Mølleå River using water power to power the mills producing paper, weapons and textiles. But since steam power was introduced only a short time after these factories were built, development turned to back the city, and the area has been superbly preserved and is still surrounded by green forests, and amazingly most of old mills and factories still stand as they did when they were closed down in 19th century.

In the 1970s the old villages were joined together by huge patches of suburbia and the old village houses turning into residences for the wealthiest, and the suburbia occupied by the upper middle class, and bar a couple of minor exceptions and the area have become notoriously well off. The most interesting areas are without doubt the old Lyngby and along the Øresund coast, whereas the rest is mainly residential with little interest to travellers.

Get in

Notes on geography|Locals tend to see this as a string of separate towns, called by the name of the nearest S-train station, but there wouldn't be much point in listing each of these separately in a travel guide, as each on its own has little to offer. Visitors should be aware though, that the suburban nature of this neighborhood means that the attractions are far between, and it could take up to an hour in public transportation traveling between Charlottenlund and Farum for instance and the names of the "towns" are listed behind the addresses in the listings}}

The area north of Copenhagen is served by 4 S-train lines and the western area which offer little in the way of attractions are served by lines H/C (towards Frederiksund) and A (Farum). The area to the east where the attractions are centred are served by lines E/B (Holte & Lyngby) and line C (Klampenborg) which runs parallel the coast. For access to the Dyrehaven forest and the amusement park it is also feasible, and faster, to take regional kystbanen line (the coastal railway), as it has fewer stops - but be careful as some trains skip Klampenborg station.

All the S-train lines runs every 10 minutes throughout the day and every 20 minutes in the evening. the kystbanen runs every 6–14 minutes for most of the day, in the weekends and after 8PM the service is cut back to every 20 minutes. It takes roughly 15 minutes to get to Hellerup and 20 minutes to get to Klampenborg and Lyngby and the 3 main attraction areas.

By car

There are two highways leading north of city Helsingørmotorvejen (route 19) starts on Copenhagen/Østerbro|Østerbro, and runs north roughly halfway between the E/B (Holte) and C (Klampenborg) S-Train lines, just west of the Dyrehaven park to Lyngby and onwards to Elsinore. Hillerødmotorvejen (route 16) starts on the outer part of Copenhagen/Nørrebro|Nørrebro and runs north roughly half way between the A (Farum) and H/C (Ballerup) S-Train lines to Farum, and onwards to Hillerød. Motorring 3 is an orbital highway around Copenhagen, and connects to the two highways. Strandvejen runs all the way along the Øresund coast to Charlottenlund, Klampenborg and further north.

How to get around in Copenhagen/Northern suburbs

Lyngby-Holte - Lyngby & Holte West: The area bordering the lake and riverland of the suburbs. Klampenborg-hellerup - Klampenborg & Hellerup East: The area along the Øresund coast

The center of Lyngby is walkable. For a physically fit visitor it is also feasible to walk to Frilandsmuseet by following the main street. Alternatively to walk to Sophienholm or Dyrehavsbakken. Though these are several kilometers away, you may walk in the green surroundings of the Dyrehaven forest, but it would much for feasible as an enjoyable bike trip. Unlike the central part of the city, it actually does make sense to have your own wheels in the northern suburbs, as some of the attractions, restaurants and hotels are a bit out of the way of bus transportation, which while perfectly feasible, has relatively infrequent departures in the neighborhood.

• Taxi. Taxis are lined up at the train stations of Klampenborg and Lyngby, until late in the evening.
• TAXINORD, +45 45 83 83 83, is the local taxi company of the area.

Travel by train to Copenhagen/Northern suburbs

The main mode of transport for local residents is the S-trains, and while they are useful getting to and from the downtown and they are not that useful to tourists as a way to get around, as they mainly cater to commuters going downtown.

Nærumbanen is a modern light rail line between Lyngby & Nærum, but it wasn't always so. It was originally built to serve the booming industries along the Mølleå river, at the turn of the 20th century. Besides being the best most of transport to reach Frilandsmuseets eastern entrance, Brede Works (at Brede station) and the other mills along the river, it is quite scenic as it runs along the river in a forested area. It is colloquially known as "Grisen" or The Pig in English, from the loud squeaky horn the old trains used to use frequently when crossing paths and roads.

Take a bus to Copenhagen/Northern suburbs

In the Copenhagen suburbs public transportation is built around the railway network. Almost every bus line begins at a Station, and will also end at one. Due to Copenhagen's finger based structure, transportation is centred around lines going to and from the inner city, and jumping between the fingers can be an unusually cumbersome. Below is a section of the most useful buslines in the area.

• 169 & 179 runs the same ring route, but in opposite directions. And will get you between Lyngby & Charlottenlund stations, but it is rather slow and it may be quicker to take the s-trains to Hellerup and change to the C line to go back north.
• 191 Is the only option to get to the canoe rental places, and sights in Nybro and Frederiksdal. It runs twice an hour most of the day between Lyngby and Sorgenfri station.
• 388 is the best option for transportation between the two main attraction areas of Lyngby and Klampenborg, it stops at both stations, and runs along the border of Dyrehaven, but remember to check the schedule as it is fairly infrequent with only 2 departures per hour.
• 400S Is the best option between Lyngby, Farum and Ballerup. There is no direct connection to Farum, so you'll have to switch to the S-Train in at Bagsværd station, and take the train onwards to Farum, or stay on the bus to go to Ballerup.

By boat

Baadfarten. has been sailing passengers on the Mølleå canal as well as Furesø, Bagsværd and Lyngby lakes, in their famous and charming white boats, for more than 100 years and besides being an excellent way too see the sights in Frederiksdal and Nybro, it is a popular excursion in itself. The oldest of the 6 ferries currently sailing; Princes Alexandrine and Prince Christian were built in between 1896-1896, and thus dating back to the early beginnings, was originally driven by steam but has been modified several times and now uses a diesel engine.

The usual starting point is from the pier in Lyngby, not to far from the station and departs approx. every 40 minutes between 10AM Monday - 5PM during summer (early June - mid August), from May to the end of September there is also services on weekends on the stretch between Frederiksdal and Sorgenfrivej. There are 3 regular routes.

• Lyngby - Nybro - Bagsværd
• Lyngby - Nybro - Frederiksdal
• Frederiksdal - Furesøbad (Farum)

On Sundays there are also an additional service connecting Frederiksdal, Birkerød and Holte on the Furesø lake. Tickets are between 35-40 Kr, and a full day ticket can be purchased for 110 Kr. The routes are plotted on the map.

What to see in Copenhagen/Northern suburbs

55.76150|12.44201|width=500

The sights in this neighborhood is mainly suitable for warm summer days, and for visitors with a historical interest, but if those two prerequisites are met a visit here can be incredibly rewarding. Bring your bike on the train though, or bring your patience as the main attractions are located far apart, and public transportation links in the area leaves a bit to be desired. And in the not unlikely event of poor weather and there is still a world class art museum to browse through without getting wet.

Prepare

It is a good idea to call one of the rental places ahead as there is regulations in place limiting the number of canoes available for rent, it is also mandated to have life jackets for everyone on the canoe - your rental place will supply these for free. It is a good idea to wear rubber boots, flip flops or other footwear that can stand getting wet. Remember to bring plenty of liquids, Snacks and food as there are few places to stuck up supplies on route, and remember to bring one of the brochures with a map available for free at the rental place. Since you have to carry the canoe over a few roads at the old dams - you might want to shell out the 20 Kr extra for a set of wheels for the canoe.

Route

After Fursø lake, right next to Frederiksdal's canoe rental outfit and the first stop is the old Frederiksdal mill and the romantic yellow brick buildings, was a paper mill build in 1880. If thit is your starting point, you will be paddling down the fortification canal; a part of a string of canals that were designed to flood the low lying areas north of Copenhagen, with water from Furesø lake if Copenhagen ever was to become besieged. On the northern side of the canal, Lyngby marshes is a protected area due to the unique natural environment. After crossing the large Lyngby lake and sailing under the train tracks, you will have to transport the canoe over a piece of land past the cute yellow Lyngby Mills.

Heading north you will have a nice view over Sorgenfri Palace on your left, before another carry at Fuglevad. Onwards you will sail along the Open Air Museum on your left, and a local railway on your right, which used to carry workers to the mills. Next stop is Brede with the impressive Brede Works towering above the dammed lake. Here you once again need to carry the Canoe over the dam. Next dams (and carries) is at Ørholm and Nymølle the long red building in Ørholm dates back to 1886, and along with mill in Nymølle, it was the centre of the Danish paper industry in the early days of Industrialisation. The forest towering on both sides of the river is nicknamed The Danish Switzerland due to the unusually hilly and steep terrain.

Just before reaching the Motorway bridge and the first sleeping option is the commercial camping grounds of Nærum Camping due north of the river. Continuing you will have around 30 minutes of sailing, before reaching the free rudimentary camping grounds of Stampen start looking for a parking lot on your right, a couple of bends after the water treatment plant. Onwards there is a short carry over Svenskevej road, before you reach the idyllic village of Raadvad in the middle of the Dyrehaven forest. Another industrial centre with an old inn that offers excellent dining (see Rådvad Kro), and a secluded hostel.

From here it is smooth sailing through the beautiful park or forest, until you reach Strandmøllen, a picturesque mill, and the only of the old mills that still houses production. Just north of the damn is another rudimentary camping ground, and right after the mill, you have reached the end of your journey and the water turns salty, as you have reached the Øresund coast.

Sleep

While it’s feasible to sail the entire route in a day if you’re physically fit and hurried, It’s feasible to overnight at several locations along the river and the offers range from primitive free campgrounds to hostels, and allow you to discover the river at more leisurely pace.

• Furesøens Teltplads – Primitive free campgrounds with a bonfire space.
• Nærum Campingplads see entry in sleep section

It is feasible to follow the river on foot or bike from Lyngby all the way to the sea (Øresund) through park and forest.

Beaches

While the fancy new beaches in the inner harbour of Copenhagen/Indre By|downtown Copenhagen, are definitely more unique and conveniently located - The beaches along the Øresund coast dotted north along the Strandvejen road, following the coast, are where Copenhagerners used to make their escape from hot summer days in the city.

It is certainly not affordable - even though basic dishes on many of the listings below often hovers around 150 Kr, expect the final bill to be much higher.

If you headed north of downtown to drink in this neighborhood, you would be heading in the opposite direction of everyone else who crowd the late trains, to head for the nightlife in the center - or to put it a bit more bluntly, do not!
