Getting There
-
Walking
Bananna Park sits just north of Nørrebro’s main urban core, a comfortable 8–12-minute stroll from the bustling Sankt Hans Torv or the iconic Nørrebrohallen. From these lively neighborhood hubs, the park is easily located by following the pedestrian flow past local bakeries and shops, with the arched climbing wall visible above the park's edge. The area is flat and accessible, making the approach suitable for most visitors.
-
Public Transport
City buses and the M3 metro line stop near Nørrebros Runddel and Nørrebro station, both a short walk from Bananna Park. A typical transit ride from Nørrebro's center takes about 5–10 minutes, costing 12–24 DKK for a standard adult single fare. From the metro or major bus stops, clear local signage and the park's colorful walls make the final approach unmistakable.
-
Taxi
A taxi from central Nørrebro hubs, such as Sankt Hans Torv, usually takes 5–8 minutes depending on traffic, with fares averaging 60–90 DKK. Note that parking options in the immediate vicinity are limited and metered during weekdays—a common situation in this lively part of the city.
-
Cycling
Copenhagen’s extensive bike lanes run directly past Bananna Park, making cycling both the quickest and most Nørrebro-friendly way to arrive from the central district (typically 4–8 minutes). Bike racks are located by the park entrance, and there is no charge for bicycle parking.
