Running Copenhagen offers running sightseeing tours in Copenhagen with a local guide.
It was great as it combined exercise, sightseeing and local knowledge. We did the City Tour which cost 20 Euros on the first day we were in Copenhagen and we covered all the main sights within 1.5 hour of running. The guide took pictures of us along the way which we later received by email and could view on Facebook. She also recommended a handful of bars, restaurants and cool galleries, which meant that we spent the rest of our holiday visiting some truly cool places.
Even if you are not the next Paula Radcliffe, you can still join this tour and experience Copenhagen in a fun and active way.

When Copenhagen goes all festive and international - I wish! Events are pretty much localized to Faelledparken. It tries to imitate the carnival in Rio de Janeiro but fails. Please don’t get me wrong, it is an amazing event in itself, in that Copenhagen goes multicultural for 48hrs. Fun is to be found for all ages, and the standard is high from those participating. They really, really try!

Faelledparken, opposite national football stadium (home of FCK), centre of Osterbro, follow Osterbrogade from Osterport Station and enter via Trianglen.

A really nice bar, full of creative types and students. Serves some excellent Danish beers as well as the normal Carlsberg and Tuborg. Sit outside weather permitting, blankets provided if a bit chilly! All the furniture and fittings are supposedly up for sale, if you really fancy a chair with your beer, this is the place. In all the years I have been there I have never seen anyone do this ...

In my opinion The Globe is the best Irish bar in Copenhagen. It is hard to understand why, the drinks, décor and service are nothing special, you could even say that the drinks and ‘Irish pub’ décor are typical of its ilk. Service boarders on down-right depressing at times. But somehow the place grabs you and won’t let go. I could say it has to do with the authenticity of the pub culture demonstrated by the mostly authentic Irish staff. Brian the owner is obviously Irish and a big Liverpool fan too! Come and experience football here (especially when Liverpool are playing) on the big screen and assorted TV’s, packed like sardines in what is a big bar. Maybe it's the pub quizzes. It could be the food, standard pub fair but done really well! Mainly though I think it’s the people - there is always a mix of expats and locals and as in any good pub you get to know them.
