The drive from Brussels in Belgium to Copenhagen in Denmark is a lovely trip across Northern Europe. It’s about 928 kilometres and takes roughly 10.3 hours behind the wheel. You’ll cross the border into Germany en route to the Danish coast. While Belgian motorways are usually free for cars, you should be aware that there’s a toll for crossing the Great Belt Bridge as you enter Zealand in Denmark. Both countries drive on the right, so navigation should be fairly simple. This longer journey gives you a great chance to see the varied scenery as you head north towards the Baltic Sea.
