Welcome to all cycling tourists!

At Kragsbjerggaard, we warmly welcome all cycling tourists and assist in any way we can. Staying at Kragsbjerggaard is ideal when your cycling route takes you through the capital of Funen because we are located in the middle of Odense but in completely rural surroundings where you can take a walk in the forest or relax in the garden and rest your legs after a long day in the saddle.

From Kragsbjerggaard, it is easy to explore all of Odense while also connecting to longer routes in Funen such as Østersøruten og Bike Island Ruten.

We are excited to welcome you and help you venture out into the fantastic world of cycling on Funen!
