Nordhavn is a new, modern and waterfront neighborhood in Copenhagen. I happen to live here, and these are my favorite things to do with my kids in my backyard!

Konditaget Lüders - Rooftop Playground

This is an amazing urban, rooftop playground built on top of a parking garage. Get great views of the harbor and neighborhood from up here! You can climb the two impressive wrap around staircases to get to the top.

Marvel at the beauty of the Portland Towers and harbor bath, while your kids slide on the cement hills littered in the public square underneath them.

Kronløbsøen Swimming

This newly built apartment complex has steps that go straight into the ocean, and is the best harbor swim spot for toddlers. (Swim at your own risk, it’s not technically allowed here, but everyone does it)

Nordhavn Recycling Center

Like all the recycling centers in Denmark, this one has a swap room you can browse, full of people's things that they no longer want, but are too nice to throw away. Like a free library for stuff!
