things to do in denmark
29 Aug
I am working in Copenhagen and next month I need to frequently travel between Copenhagen and Helsingborg (3-4 times a week). I have seen the following options on internet:
1. Bus from Copenhagen to Helsingborg (takes around 1:50 hrs)
2. Train from Copenhagen to Helsingor (around 1 hr) and then ferry from Helsingor to Helsingborg (around 20 mins).
Can you let me know which is the better option? Also, are there any limitations on the ferries in winters? I am unable to get the timetable of the above two options on the internet.
Option #2 is better i think. But i don’t know if it’s cheaper^^
I live in Helsingborg and when my sister worked in Copenhagen she took the ferry to Helsingör and then the train to Copenhagen. But i don’t know which ticket she bought…

Option 2 is the best.
Check these links.
http://www.dsb.dk/ The first is for train schedules and prices. The next 2 are for ferries that sails between Helsingør and Helsingborg.

I would consider Skånetrafikken (Train) to Malmo and then change train to Copenhagen. The time should be about 1 hour and 47 minutes but some trains stop and go on to Copenhagen which reduce the time to 1 hour and 23 minutes.
There are so much problems with the trains between Elsinore and Copenhagen on the Danish side. They are nearly all delayed.
