Getting There
-
Walking
Jægersborggade is best reached on foot from central Nørrebro, a roughly 10–20-minute walk from the Lakes. En route, travelers will pass through lively squares and tree-lined streets, with the famous Assistens Cemetery and its green paths nearby offering peaceful orientation. Expect an engaging, people-watching stroll past cafes and local shops before arriving at the distinct energy of Jægersborggade.
-
Public Transport
Several bus routes connect central Copenhagen with Nørrebro. Disembark near the Nørrebro district’s main intersection, recognizable by its colorful urban plaza and prominent metro station. From there, it’s a brief walk, with tickets on buses or metro typically costing around 24–36 DKK for a single adult fare. Jægersborggade’s lively storefronts start just a few minutes from these central stops.
-
Taxi
Taxis from Copenhagen city center to Jægersborggade typically take 10–15 minutes depending on traffic. Expect fares in the range of 100–160 DKK.

Copenhagen’s excellent bike infrastructure makes cycling to Jægersborggade a breeze. From the city center, it’s about a 15–20-minute ride, mostly along wide cycle lanes and green corridors, culminating near the bustling Nørrebro park area.
