Cycling:
Many local tourist offices offer all-inclusive cycling trips, with everything (including bicycle rental, detailed route descriptions, maps, ferry tickets and accommodation) arranged in advance. Prices are lower for those bringing their own bicycles. The routes are laid out by local experts. For independent cyclists, a wide range of detailed cycling maps is available. Bicycles can be hired from local tourist offices or bicycle shops. Bicycles are allowed on all Danish ferries and several small passenger boats (in most cases against payment), most trains (InterCity trains require prior reservation and reservations are not possible on Interregional trains), buses (which have room for up to four bicycles, although prams have priority) and aeroplanes (special packing requirements apply). For details, contact the Danish Cyclists’ Association (Dansk Cyklist Forbund), Rmersgade 5-7, DK-1362 Copenhagen K (tel: 3332 3121; fax: 3332 7683; e-mail: dcf@dcf.dk; website: www.dcf.dk).

Health resorts:
These are widespread throughout Denmark. Some offer medical and physiotherapeutic treatment, others simply recreation in beautiful and quiet surroundings.

Fishing:
Denmark has excellent facilities for both freshwater and saltwater fishing. Sea fishing tours can be arranged with local fishermen at many Danish harbours (for instance in Copenhagen, Elsinore or Frederikshavn); large groups may charter a boat for themselves. Fishing off the shores of Denmark’s 7500km (5000 mile) long coastline is widely available. Anglers must not take up position within 50m (164ft) of a dwelling place. Fishing rights in lakes and streams are usually privately-owned but are often let to local societies which issue day- or week-cards. A fishing licence is required in all cases (except for under 18s and over 65s, who are free) and can be obtained from Danish post offices, local tourist offices and angling shops. Special licences for tourists (valid from 1 day to 1 week) are available. Anglers are obliged to inform themselves about fishing restrictions and closed seasons. For further information and addresses of angling societies, contact the Danish Sports Fishing Association (Danmarks Sportsfiskerforbund), Worsesgade 1, DK-7100 Vejle (tel: 7582 0699; fax: 7582 0209; e-mail: post@sportsfiskerforbundet.dk; website: www.sportsfiskeren.dk).

Nude bathing:
This is quite common at Danish seaside resorts. At beaches where nude bathing is not officially permitted, bathers are requested to show consideration and follow the directions of the local guards. The only beaches where it is actually prohibited are Henne Strand and Holmsland Klit (both on Jutland’s western coast). At Bellevue Beach in the metropolitan area, walking in the nude is prohibited while bathing or sunbathing in the nude is not. See online for more information (website: www.strandguide.dk).

Watersports:
The long inlets and protected shores on the Danish coast offer easy conditions for windsurfing (and are thus particularly suitable for beginners). Facilities for sailing are excellent: over 500 yachting harbours can be found along the coast and anchorage is allowed at a further 500 islands. Boat hire facilities are widespread. Detailed handbooks and marine charts are available from the Danish Yachting Association (Dansk Sejlunion) (tel/fax: 4326 2182; e-mail: ds@sailing.dk; website: www.sejlsport.dk) or the National Survey and Cadastre (Kort & Matrikelstyrelsen) (tel: 3587 5050; e-mail: kms@kms.dk; website: www.kms.dk); charts are available for direct download from the KMS Internet site.
Note:
All waterscooter traffic is under general prohibition within the Danish sea territory.
