Denmark is a kingdom of thriving cities and idyllic landscapes; an innovative society with a green lifestyle. Denmark is located in northern Europe and is part of Scandinavia. Denmark consists of the Jutland peninsula, the larger islands of Zealand, Funen, and Lolland-Falster, and 429 other named islands between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea, 72 of which are inhabited.
Nowhere in Denmark is more than 50 km from the sea. And just a few kilometers from Denmark’s major cities of Aarhus and Copenhagen you find idyllic villages and pristine woodlands and lakes.
Gateway to Europe:
Denmark’s location makes it a gateway to other Scandinavian countries and the rest of Europe. Berlin is just an hour’s flight away. London and Paris can be reached in less than two hours. And Barcelona, Rome, Vienna, and Prague are all just a few hour’s flights away.
