Odense

Late spring to early autumn suits garden visits and cycling, though rain remains possible.

Expect changeable temperate weather; pack layers and a waterproof jacket throughout the year.

Accommodation and dining are the main expenses; bakeries and supermarkets help keep food costs down.

Buses and cycling serve the city well; regional trips may require planning around less frequent connections.

Visit the Hans Christian Andersen Museum, stroll the old quarter and explore the open-air Funen Village museum.

Take normal city precautions and watch for cyclists when crossing streets or stepping into cycle lanes.
