DENMARK 2005: Trip Report
 

 

Koge and Feddet

The first stop on our tour was at Koge, about 50km south of Copenhagen. We lost the route on the outskirts of the city and found ourselves cycling along the busy main road.

Requests for directions earned us puzzled looks until somebody told us that 'Koge' is pronounced 'Cooya'.

When we eventually found the path it was well signposted, it wound through the countryside near the coast and well away from the roads. We ate our picnic lunch at a bench along the way.

The apartment at Koge was clean and comfortable. The owners were a young couple, and the apartment was a self contained section of their house. They welcomed us like old friends, making sure our bikes were stored safely in the garden and we had everything we needed. We settled in and walked to the 'torvet'. Every town has a torvet, or square, and that is where you find tourist information, ATM's and other useful stuff.

We followed our normal routine of going to the Supermarket, buying the ingredients for spaghetti carbonara and a bottle of wine, and ate at the apartment.

The next stop was Feddet. Large camping sites have cabins and, although quite expensive, they are easy to book and in convenient locations.

We had planned on staying at several of these during our trip but this experience put us off. Our cabin, which was supposed to be the 'luxury' version, was cramped, scruffy and austerely furnished.
