Glostrup Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Enjoy a romantic stroll through the lovely park, check out the latest fashions in the well-appointed shopping centre and admire the view from the top of Oxbjerget.

The suburb of Glostrup is a charming town with lots of leisure facilities and plenty of shops. It also features an abundance of open spaces for relaxing walks and places to play. If you want a bit more action during a holiday or weekend break, the bright lights of Copenhagen are just 7 miles away.

If you need to wind down a little without losing out on big-city convenience, a trip to Glostrup is ideal. Take a walk in Glostrup Bypark with its winding paths, sculptures and colourful planting. To see Glostrup from above, visit Oxbjerget at the eastern end of the Vestskoven woods. From the top of the hill, there is a fine view over Glostrup.

Glostrup started life as a small village. With the coming of the railway came a station, and the area became a popular suburb of Copenhagen. Many Glostrup residents now commute between their homes and the capital, but there is still plenty of shopping and entertainment to be had in Glostrup itself.

If you like to shop at your leisure, a holiday in Glostrup is ideal. Apart from the pedestrian street, there are over 50 specialist shops in Glostrup Shoppingcenter. Round off your morning with a delicious lunch in the popular Café Dalle Valle on the high street. If you’re a fan of Danish design, take a look at Glostrup Rådhus – this characteristic building dates from 1957 and was designed by the renowned Arne Jakobsen and features beautiful gardens.

If you bring the family to Glostrup, there is a whole range of activities to keep them all amused. Have fun in Glostrup Bowlingcenter, or take in a football match at Glostrup Stadion. You can also visit Glostrup Idrætsanlæg to try your hand at Full Swing simulator golf while the kids go wild on the playground or in the swimming pool. The pool features a 100m long sensory slide, plus a wellness department with spa and outdoor sauna.

Glostrup is more than just a suburb to Copenhagen. This is where you can find the perfect mix of shopping, scenery and big city.

"Self check in & out is super easy. The lobby is bright and spacious with plenty of nooks to sit and chat with friends. Outdoor seating was similar. It's got a good vibe! The ticket system is fine once you get the hang of it, especially when busy, but not at all explained to a first time visitor. ..."
