First time in Copenhagen (most expensive free city)

[@Stussy787]

A lot of bicycles have integrated locks situated underneath the seat stays so it is not always obvious they are locked up.

[@statagerz]

Yeh prolly 90% of all bikes in Cph is locked

[@PSimonsen]

@@statagerz More like 99%

[@happyfarang]

I lived there 19 years ago. Back then, bike theft was a big thing. It was very common so yeah, lock your bike in Copenhagen. Sometimes at night, vans would pull up to the big bike parking and just fill up the van, locked or not, and they would ride off with them, so chain your bike to something if you plan to park for longer time :)

[@jacobmarquard2111]

Every danish bike has a lock, and a wirelock is common- but ordinary bikes don’t have huge locks

[@dekayjones]

Thanks for the video. I am loving the city already and I am not there as of yet. I will be there in May for one week. I am looking forward to it, thanks to the great work you have done.

[@NatashaBergen]

Thank you for your comment, and I'm glad you liked it! Enjoy your trip and let me know how it goes =)

[@Me_how94]

I had a short stopover at the Copenhagen airport today on the way to Iceland. I just came here to get to know more about the city and now you have inspired me to visit Copenhagen, rent a bike and explore all of it. Thanks for a video!

[@NatashaBergen]

Awesome!! Glad you had a good time 🤩

[@Emiliehaulik]

Happy you enjoyed the city! However as a local i truly wish tourists wouldn’t rent bikes. Most people are not used to the rush and etiquette on the bike lanes and they cause so many accidents… It’s a super walkable city and its okay to just watch the cyclists if you’re not used to that cycling culture!

[@joshschrader4732]

great vid- was just there 2 weeks ago- blew me away- so organized and clean- metro is wonderful and the bike infrastructure is next level- we spent hours browsing furniture stores to soak in that great danish design- plan on taking my kids back in spring:)

[@ddwd1332]

For info: There is actually locks on the bikes, they are just on top of the wheel and attached to the bike. Some people with expensive bikes might use a chainlock also. Electric bike users also take out their battery when they lock it. Bikes get stolen alot! must gets transported illegally out of the country.

[@NatashaBergen]

Very interesting indeed! Great to know 😁

[@longlostkryptonian5797]

Couldn’t agree more! I spent ten days there and knew I could easily live there 72 hours in.

[@finncarlbomholtsrensen1188]

Bikes do have locks and if not they are to be stolen! But Salaries in Denmark are high, as our Prices and Taxes, but we do get much back from the last. But in rural areas you will find tables with local produced fruits and vegetables and a box for money!!! And if it wasn't profitable, they wouldn't be there.

I love visiting Copenhagen. It's a 3 hour train ride from my town so it's not that far away. There's alot to see, eat and drink and Denmark as a country is beautiful. Great music!!! It's just sad that no one can understand them when they speak... 😂🤣😁😊👍😜 As always the Bergen train delivers a fantastic and funny video. I'm really excited to see you climb the highest peak in Denmark( If you count out the Faroe Islands and Greenland)🤣🤣 Shouldn't take that long😊😁🤣😂😎 Be safe (up there on the top 🤣😂😆) No really... be safe Björn OUT (micdrop)

Ohhh you gave me a good giggle on this one!! MICDROP! The cherry on top haha! That's so cool it's close to you, I'd visit a few times a year if I could I guess it could even be a day trip for you right? I am counting on the Faroe Islands as a peak but Greenland I'm struggling with because it's not really geographically part of Europe but it might be cool... haha cool 🥶 I dunno, the jury is still out on that one ;) The peak had it's own silly obstacle as you can probably guess 😂 I hope you'll like the video

Hi Natasha - I’m slowly following you around Europe! I’m in Malta right now and I’ll be at Ta Djmerek on Sunday. Four weeks later, I’ll be in Copenhagen, so thanks for your tips - not for the highest peak though…for the Xmas markets! I’ll catch up with you one day 😂

[@NatashaBergen]

Ohhhh so awesome you'll be there for christmas markets! And I hope you enjoy Malta 😁

[@finncarlbomholtsrensen1188]

As also an often visitor to Malta, you may board a plane directly to Copenhagen from Luqa. Danish, "Atlantic Airways" mostly flies once a week with tourists to the Danish Designed, built and owned "Town" in Mellieha, and they do sell Plane Tickets also, if asked! They have a Representative in Luqa. One of the Danish Guides from Mellieha and she has also made a Danish spoken Announcement in the Airport, when the planes leaves again for Denmark!!! Finn.

[@hejmuesli]

Next time check out CopenHill which is a waste facility plant with a year-round ski slope on the roof. Take the elevator up, and walk down - then you get the full experience. It's quite close to Reffen, so it makes a lot of sense to combine the two. Rent a bike, also. It makes a lot of sense to get around by bike. You can also check out Absalon CPH which is a former church turned into a community hang-out place. They serve food, coffee, sodas, beers, wine, and you can play ping-pong and hang out.

[@NatashaBergen]

Oh yes!! Thank you for this!! I will for sure go back for these 🙌 Am I right in thinking there’s also massive rock wall somewhere near CPH or in? 😄

[@hejmuesli]

Copenhagen is such a tourist place. It's like on the bucket list for many, because of the system in Denmark in general, the bicycle culture, and each and every time there is an election in the USA, Denmark is mentioned. IDKW.

Honestly as a Dane Copenhagen is no more expensive than cities like London, New York and so on. Copenhagen can easily be done on a budget if you have the energy to do so. I grew up In Denmark, and all the bikes I owned in my life has been stolen, no bike is ever safe here lol.

[@moenielsen3218]

Jep, hvis man vil have en cykel til at stå ved stationen eller lignende, så skal det være noget gammelt lort, ellers bliver den stjålet.

[@KHValby]

"Nyhavn" pronounced "Newhown" 😊 ! Denmark is safe unless you are a bike😒! Unfortunately, bicycle theft is huge here 😒! All bikes here are sold with a basic lock! They are metal, black and circular and set on the rear wheel. They open with either code or key. They are insurance required ! Christiania" is a hippie town. Tourists visit it because they think it's antonymous! It's not! Police still raid them often! Due to "Pusher Street". Christiana is subject to the same laws as the rest of the country! So pot and drugs aren't legal there either! It is a fine experiment where you see many forms of housing and ways of life if you move further into the surrounding area! Recommend that ! Good Vegan and vegetarian eateries I hear! Probably reasonably priced 😊 Pusher Street was initially about the hippies being able to smoke some hash/weed! Today, Pusher Street is controlled by criminal gangs who just want to sell there weed and hashish! Even the Christanites want to get rid of them.

[@NATIK001]

Places like Copenhagen is why I am so confused by people fighting against environmentalism, sustainability, building for people, design, etc. Almost no one coming to Copenhagen will claim they didn't feel better, calmer, happier and more stimulated than in the average metropolis, and there is no secret to why Copenhagen is how it is and how to get there, but once one tries to move in that direction so many people start fighting against it.

All the bikes have locks, they are fixed to the frame for the most part. You just didn’t look hard enough or knew where to look. Everyone in Denmark has had a bike stolen more than once, personally I owned very few bikes that were not stolen.

[@hansestaden7595]

Lived there for 14 years, worked close to Nyhavn, never saw a thing. Tragic. Would probably have helped if I have had friends or someting to go outside and see stuff. But I hadn't so I didn't.

[@Joliie]

Just to point out, it is still illegal to buy weed in Christina, the government has launched a campaign to make sure tourist understand this. The locals are also getting tired of it, the shootings and crimes around the street is high. Last you can film there, but just not on pusher street because of the crimes being done, they do not like to be filmed selling drugs, in other areas if you ask, they will most likely let you film.

[@veronicajensen7690]

drugs of all kind is as illegal in Christania as in the rest of Denmark-the laws apply there and there is often police raids

Many Danish bicycles have a locking mechanism built into the frame just above the back wheel/under the seat. It immobilizes the bike by sending a bolt around the tire between the spokes. The bike can still be carried away but as Danish commuter bikes are clunky and heavy... this style of un-fancy bike has no black market value to speak of.
