Just walking distance from the Vestamager station, is this nature park. It is huge. I’ve visited many times but I still don’t think I’ve explored the entire thing. It may look a little boring because at first glance, it seems to just be flatlands. But if you go a little deeper into the park, you will come across dense forests, ponds, and if you’re lucky, wildlife. This park is perfect for biking, hiking, walking, going on a picnic, horse back riding, animal watching… you name it! When the weather is nice, expect to find many other people enjoying the park with you. However, people tend to visit this park come rain or shine. I love all of the added quirks that the Kommune has added to the park, like the wooden viking ship for kids to play around in, bird watching huts on top of the ponds, the nature center, and the animals. It’s all very well-maintained as well! This park is a great place to bring kids or get out and connect with nature.

This place is very very very hidden. We discovered it by biking in the nature preserve in Amager and we wanted some water. There are some animals you can see, there is a café in the nature and there are grill areas where you can cook your own food with picnic areas. At the time when we went, there where many children playing around and families having picnic and also a bunch of young people making a BBQ. At the café you can buy ice cream refreshments and so on but I can not remember how the food menu looked like. Just remember they accept only Dankort and when you re so far out from the city it’s hard to find an ATM. I don’t know what other activities you can attend but it seems there is a lot going on which you can check from the site. I recommend this as a bike ride combined with a coffee stop here!
