Hello,

I would like to bring a bike to Danemark this summer to move easily between cities. I have to reach Copenhagen from Paris. Did anyone already book this kind of train ticket ?
Thank you for your help.

Why do you assume that a ticket is possible? Just going from Paris to the border will give problems on fast trains, Like most long distance operators SNCF do not want bikes onboard (and they control Eurostar to Germany), bikes must have wheels removed and then put in a bag. They may be charged as excess luggage. In Germany they are allowed on many trains (but not all) with a ticket and reservation. DSB say that they are only allowed on ONE train per day from Hamburg to Copenhagen, they suggest you use regional trains and change at Flensburg, a ticket and reservation for it will be needed in Denmark, only a ticket on the german regional train.
