Zones

The Greater Copenhagen Area is divided into different zones. At bus stops and in stations, you will find coloured zone maps by which you can calculate the fare for your journey. The most expensive coloured zone you pass through on your journey from A to B determines the fare you have to pay. You pay for minimum two zones, maximum nine zones. Metro, bus and train can be combined as much as you like for as long as your ticket is valid. It will say on the back of your ticket.

Cash ticket

You can buy a cash ticket for the number of zones you want to travel. Travelling in two zones (inner city area) for one hour costs DKK 20 for adults. You can buy your ticket at the counter inside the ticket office or in the machines inside the stations. If you take the bus, you can buy your ticket from the driver, but bring coins, not notes.

Night fares

Ticket and 10-trip card fares are doubled if you board the Metro and the night buses between 01:00 and 05:00.

24-hour ticket

Valid for any journey within the Greater Copenhagen Area for 24 hours. The 24-hour ticket costs DKK 115  for adults and DKK 58 for children between 13 - 15 years old.

10-trip card

A 10-trip card contains ten journeys and is available for the number of zones you want to travel. You save approximately 40 percent compared to the fare of a cash ticket.

Children under 12 years

A child under the age of 12 years travelling alone pays the child fare, which is approximately 50 percent of an adult fare. Up to two children under 12 years old travel free when accompanied by an adult with a valid ticket or card. Up to four children under 12 can travel together on one adult ticket.

CPHCARD

The CPHCARD is valid for any travel in the Greater Copenhagen Area for 24 or 72 hours. Furthermore, the CPHCARD gives you free admission to approx. 60 attractions plus discount to a number of attractions and restaurants.
