Beaches and Nature

For nature lovers, Aarhus offers some fantastic beaches. Head to Bellevue Beach for a quick dip or enjoy the scenic beauty of Risskov Beach located in the forest of Riis Skov.

Car Recommendations

A compact car would suit the city's narrow streets. However, if you plan to explore the surrounding countryside, a car with a robust engine for the hilly terrain would be ideal.

Understanding Danish Krone(DKK)

Denmark uses the Danish Krone as currency. Cash is not king in Denmark, with most establishments preferring payment by card, so make sure your card works internationally.
