Is it true that children under 6 can legally ride a bicycle on the sidewalk in Denmark?

Upvote:3

The under six rule is that they must be accompanied by someone at least 15 years of age.

No cyclist is permitted to ride on the sidewalk if a cycle path is available.

If no cycle path - all cyclists should walk their bikes as it is safe and polite, including under sixers.

Upvote:7

No, unless there is a dedicated bicycle path on the sidewalk, it is not allowed for anyone to ride a bicycle there (Færdselsloven § 49 Stk. 5. and § 14 Stk. 4.).

Children below the age of six must be accompanied by a person above 15 years of age to ride a bicycle at all (Færdselsloven § 50).
