We have just visited Solens Hjerte on Funen. Amazing experience just from the moment we turned at the driveway, because we were met with peace and spaciousness. I recommend that you eat there, because the house is full of the most wonderful people. Here is room for everyone, even our somewhat noisy kids were welcome. The area is amazing, and the garden is very beautiful. The name Solens Hjerte (the heart of the sun) is fitting.

An EU pet passport is required for travel with certain pets (dogs and cats). It proofs that the animal has been vaccinated against rabies (vaccination must be given no earlier than 21 days before entry), and your dog must also be chipped to enable clear identification. In addition to the chip, it is also mandatory in Denmark for your dog to wear a tag on the collar that states the name of the dog owner and their address.
Denmark ban driving under the influence of marijuana (THC, cannabis), methylamphetamine, and MDMA (ecstasy). If the police suspect a driver is under the influence, they will test for various substances.

In Denmark, you drive on the right side of the road – similar to most of Europe.

In Denmark the speed limits are 50 kilometers per hour in towns and 80 kilometers on most roads. On the motorways, you can usually drive 130 kilometers per hour, but some parts only allow 110 kilometers per hour with posted signs.
Park your motorhome or car in the direction of traffic (the right-hand side of the road). Often you are allowed to park between 1 hour and 2 hours in many places without paying. Parking if indicated by an additional sign are only valid at certain times. Here you should note the special color coding (times in black or white refer to the days of the week from Monday to Friday. Times in brackets are for Saturdays and times in red are for Sundays and public holidays). The traffic rules in Denmark require a parking disc in the windscreen. Foreign cars can buy a parking disc at tourist offices, petrol stations or at www.pintrip.eu.

Cash payments are generally not accepted at parking machines or on local public transport. We recommend that you take an internationally accepted credit or debit card with you. The popular payment MobilePay can only be used by holders of a Danish personal identification number (CPR number).
Denmark is a nation on two wheels. You will see bicycles everywhere you go, so make sure to watch out for them. Motorists must always yield to bicycles, and they often have their own lanes, but sometimes you have to share the road.
