Practical

Before you go

  • The signs

    Look for the small brown sign with a yellow daisy. Where you see it, you're still on the route.

  • Direction

    The route is a loop. Most drive it clockwise from Skagen, but either direction works.

  • Length

    About 4,218 km, or two to three weeks at a comfortable pace.

  • Ferries

    Three short crossings: Helsingør–Helsingborg, Spodsbjerg–Tårs, and Hov–Sælvig. Reservations rarely required.
