Brief Itinerary
Day 1
Start in Kongens Have (The King's Garden) for open lawn play and a quick visit outside Rosenborg Castle. Large grassy areas and a children's playground make this a relaxed morning spot before crowds build.
1h 30m
10–15 minute stroll through quiet central streets toward the glass food halls. An easy, scenic walk—plenty of stroller-friendly pavements.
15m
Choose from many stalls offering everything from warm kid-friendly dishes to allergy-aware options. Plenty of seating and easy access to changing rooms in nearby cafés.
1h
Easy 10-minute walk to the famous colorful harbor. Plenty of open space for kids to stretch legs before a canal cruise. Watch for cobbles—use stroller wheels with a lock.
10m
A calm, seated boat ride that shows Copenhagen from the water — an easy rest time for little ones with great sights (Little Mermaid, Opera House) and shade on many boats.
