Transportation
Transportation to København
Getting to København by train is very doable when departing from Sweden, Germany or the Netherlands. There are also ferries from Lithuania, Poland and Germany to southern Sweden, from where you can reach København within a few hours. From Iceland, it's possible to reach northern Denmark and carry on by train. Between Oslo and København, there's even a direct ferry!
København Central Station
@thesustainabletravelguide
The current central train station in København’s dates back from 1911. It has a large entrance hall with a few small shops and places to get food. It can be a little challenging to find information about departures and arrivals, so I’d suggest using the DSB website or App on your phone. There are ticket machines in the station as well.
Once you’ve found which platform you need to go to, you can admire the impressive architecture of this station. I think it has so much more character than any hypermodern station could ever attempt to have!

DFDS Terminal
@thesustainabletravelguide
Opt for sustainable transportation when combining your trip to København with travelling to Norway by taking an overnight ferry.
There is a direct route between København and Olso, which is run bij DFDS ferries. The ferry departs daily at 15:00 from København and you’ll arrive in Oslo at 10:00 the next morning. It’s a much more relaxed experience than going through airport security and all the hassle that comes with luggage allowances.
