It\u2019s actually only 300 metres from where I was staying, but there is a canal in the way that needs portaging around on cobbles.

head out to the island of Amager. Our first and last 5km were all bike paths, partly along the canal systems and we got a great taste of Copenhagen life, so dominated by the bicycle. This was an experience we will never forget, and we have to do it again tomorrow when we head away from the city centre of Copenhagen to our next destination. If you think you are experienced cycling with packs of cyclists on cobblestones, THINK AGAIN! I never seen so many bicycles being ridden, there is actually a bicycle rush hour!! (look at Relive above).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"141\" src=\"https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/velo-valhalla\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2024\/06\/IMG_4911-1-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-141\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/velo-valhalla\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2024\/06\/IMG_4911-1-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/velo-valhalla\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2024\/06\/IMG_4911-1-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/velo-valhalla\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2024\/06\/IMG_4911-1-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/velo-valhalla\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2024\/06\/IMG_4911-1-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/velo-valhalla\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2024\/06\/IMG_4911-1-1000x1333.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/velo-valhalla\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2024\/06\/IMG_4911-1-230x307.jpeg 230w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/velo-valhalla\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2024\/06\/IMG_4911-1-350x467.jpeg 350w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/velo-valhalla\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2024\/06\/IMG_4911-1-480x640.jpeg 480w, https:\/\/bikeodyssey.cc\/velo-valhalla\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2024\/06\/IMG_4911-1-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> Then we reached Kalvebod F\u00e6lled, also known as Vestamager (a little easier to pronounce!).
