Winter City Break in Aarhus

Anders Vinther Poulsen

And Aarhus, second city ind Denmark - has it all. All year round there are a lot of events and culture and you can also enjoy the city’s peaceful retreats and experiences which are waiting to welcome you, the beautiful winter scenery of the forest, the serene trickle of the waves and the area’s endless list of indoor and outdoor activities.

Here, you can also enjoy a hot cup of coffee in the winter sun in one of the city’s cosy cafés and coffee houses, which are found side by side in the narrow streets of the city’s local quarters. At Åboulevarden you can enjoy an almost southern atmosphere of a lively buzz, relaxation and people chit-chatting, or you can enjoy the calmness found in the area’s streets and passages.
