Bakken & Jægersborg Dyrehave
Dyrehavsbakken / Jægersborg Dyrehave
The world's oldest amusement park (founded 1583), set within the Dyrehave deer park, a World Heritage Site where you can see thousands of deer.
Bakken amusement park is located in Klampenborg on the northern edge of Copenhagen. Entry is free and you pay per ride. It features old wooden roller coasters and traditional Danish restaurants, and its atmosphere is more down-to-earth than Tivoli. The Jægersborg Dyrehave deer park, where the amusement park is located, is part of the Royal Hunting Park of North Zealand World Heritage Site. Some 2,000 red deer and fallow deer roam its woods, and at its center stands the white hunting lodge Eremitagen. Take the S-tog C line to Klampenborg Station and walk to get there; Bellevue Beach is nearby.
