Bespoke walking and running
routes
Is the freedom to incorporate nature into your daily
exercise high on your list of priorities? Then join us on a walking/running
route and explore the hotel’s nature surroundings. We’ve created three
different digital running routes and added them to the RunGo app, which uses
turn-by-turn navigation to show you which route to run, the remaining distance
and which roads or paths you should take. Just like a car’s GPS system.
The shorter three-kilometre route is also recommended as a walk-and-talk route for a healthy break during a meeting or seminar. RunGo is free and available for iOS and Android – for both smartphone and Apple Watch.

and sculptures.

NEAREST ICE CREAM BAR
Summer and ice cream go
hand-in-hand and one of the area’s oldest and most famous ice cream bars is
Brostræde Is in Helsingør, where you can sink your teeth into a home-baked
waffle cone. However, you need not go any further than the ice cream bar at
Snekkersten Harbour or Hansen's Ice Cream bar on Strandvejen to satisfy your
craving for ice cream.
NEAREST HIGH STREET
Helsingør is one of Denmark's
oldest market towns. A stroll down its pedestrianised streets with no specific
goal in mind, and plenty of time to soak up the atmosphere of the shops and
urban scene is a must for those who love shopping or just enjoying the local
vibe.
NEAREST FOREST
Our “local” forest,
Egebæksvang Skov, is situated just 4 km from the hotel. A parking area is
located near the forest. Alternatively, you can easily reach the forest after
just one stop on the Kystbanen railway line to Espergærde station.

area offer a wide range of cultural attractions. Among the most famous are the
M/S Maritime Museum, Kronborg Castle, and Louisiana. The area is also home to
many other attractions worth visiting.
NEAREST PICNIC SPOT

recommend that you savour a relaxing moment or two among the park’s old and
abundant trees. Borrow a blanket and lie down on the grass, relax and enjoy the
sounds and smells of summer.
NEAREST GOLF COURSE
Over the years, Kokkedal Golf
Club has developed into a well-regarded 18-hole golf course. The 6,327 meters
from tee 63 offer a genuine challenge for the longest strikers, while the other
four tees (59, 55, 49 and 39) offer something for players of all levels. The
course is a park course in slightly hilly terrain with varied planting, and it
winds around Kokkedal Castle.
