Best time to visit Denmark
The low season between October and April each year is colder and has wetter weather but are quieter. As the daytimes are shorter (the sun sets a lot earlier) you might find that some attractions, mainly those that are outdoors, are closed for parts of the low season. If you time your travel to sync in with the festive season then you do however benefit from a lovely Christmas vibe filled with lights, markets and ice skating in the main cities like Copenhagen.
The best time to go if you want something more temperate may be the mid season (May to June, also middle of August until the end of Septmber) when the weather is milder than the winter and there are still less people visiting than in the high season.
Peak high season is the middle of June for two months up until the middle of August when you will find says are longer, weather is warmer and everything in terms of amenities and attractions is open. There are a lot more visitors to contend with in big cities but it is still a lot of fun.
