But it is not only Copenhagen that pursues an active sustainability policy. Scandinavia is generally known for its progressive outlook and innovative actions regarding climate improvement. As a result, Scandinavia has a great deal to offer as a destination for sustainable group and incentive travel. In this blog, we take you on a possible (sustainable) combined trip to two Scandinavian destinations: Copenhagen &amp; Malm\u00f6!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Copenhagen \u2013 Denmark<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Copenhagen, also known as the \u2018greenest city\u2019 in the world, certainly lives up to its name. From buses running on green energy and the bicycle as the main means of transport, to machines that refund a deposit when a can or plastic cup is handed in, and fully organic restaurants with a Michelin star!<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-15137 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Kopenhagen.png\" alt=\"Kopenhagen is een geweldige bestemming voor een duurzame groeps- of incentive reis.\" width=\"958\" height=\"535\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Kopenhagen.png 958w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Kopenhagen-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Kopenhagen-768x429.png 768w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Kopenhagen-16x9.png 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 958px) 100vw, 958px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>An unforgettable (green) day of travel in Copenhagen<\/h4>\n<p>We would be happy to outline a potential itinerary for an incentive trip to Copenhagen, with sustainability as the overarching theme of the travel program.<\/p>\n<h5><em>Sustainable Sleeping<\/em><\/h5>\n<p>The city features a wide range of eco-certified hotels! Finding a sustainable place to stay in Copenhagen is actually easier than finding a non-sustainable one... So you're spoiled for choice! Do you prefer a historic, modernised hotel with historic character, a brand-new design hotel equipped with modern luxury, or Denmark's most sustainable hotel chain?!<\/p>\n<h5><em>\u2018Go Green with your Team\u2019 activities<\/em><\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Skiing on the roof of a power station<\/strong>.Race down the (snowless) ski slopes on the roof of the world's cleanest waste-to-energy plant. Beneath the slope, waste is collected and converted into electricity and heat for 60,000 households. Rather not ski? Then try the walking trail that runs alongside the plant's roof.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Green Segway tour.<\/strong>Under the guidance of a local guide, interesting sustainable and green spots in the centre of Copenhagen are touched upon, such as bicycle bridges, solar installations, green roofs, harbour baths, green architecture, energy-efficient buildings and wind turbines.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hi darling.<\/strong>Don't be alarmed, but millions of bees live in beehives on roofs and in yards all across the city. Copenhagen actually boasts one of the largest beekeeping projects in Europe. The honey factory is a place where the vision of a rich urban nature and society come together. Visit the honey factory or factories and taste honey from different districts of Copenhagen on a guided tour.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-15135 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Kopenhage.png\" alt=\"Duurzame activiteiten om te ondernemen tijdens jullie groeps- of incentive reis in Kopenhagen.\" width=\"954\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Kopenhage.png 954w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Kopenhage-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Kopenhage-768x430.png 768w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Kopenhage-16x9.png 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 954px) 100vw, 954px\" \/><\/p>\n<h5><em>Sustainable dining<\/em><\/h5>\n<p>The selection of sustainable dining options is also vast in Copenhagen! For example, dine among heads of cabbage and lettuce at Denmark's first rooftop farm and feel and taste the unique atmosphere of this restaurant. All the dishes are prepared to Michelin-star standard and consist of high-quality, organic ingredients. Or take a seat in a restaurant where, alongside amazing dishes made from local and seasonal produce, a way is offered to provide people who find it difficult to find a job with a workplace in the labour market. Social responsibility!<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Journey from Copenhagen to Malm\u00f6<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>To give your group or incentive trip an extra dimension, it is wonderful to combine a visit to Copenhagen with Malm\u00f6. With a distance of only 30 kilometres between these two destinations, your travel party will find themselves in the neighbouring Scandinavian country of Sweden in no time at all! In addition, the journey itself is worth mentioning as you have to cross the spectacular \u00d6resund Bridge \u2013 the bridge that connects Denmark and Sweden.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>By train<\/strong> {<em>by train<\/em>Step aboard the \u00d8resundst\u00e5g (the train between Copenhagen and Malm\u00f6) and travel with your group to Sweden in 35 minutes.

Around 20 years ago, Malm\u00f6 was still an industrial port city, but today it has grown into one of the world\u2019s most innovative cities in the field of sustainability. For instance, the city is aiming to run entirely on green electricity by 2030; it boasts beautiful green oases and green event venues, and features neighbourhoods powered by biogas, wind and solar energy.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>An unforgettable (green) day of travel in Malm\u00f6<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>We are happy to outline a potential itinerary for an incentive trip to Malm\u00f6, with sustainability as the common thread throughout the program.<\/p>\n<h5><em>Sustainable Sleeping<\/em><\/h5>\n<p>Do you think your travelling party should have breakfast at an eco-friendly hotel consisting of a spinach-wheatgrass smoothie instead of a lavish breakfast buffet?

Among other things, the installation of green roofs provides new spaces for plants and animals, a better local climate, an insulating effect and a cooling effect on the urban environment. Oh, and of course it also just looks very nice! During a guided tour you will learn all about the operation, installation and benefits of these special roofs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cycle tour<\/strong>. Malm\u00f6 is one of the most bicycle-friendly cities in the world due to its wide, flat cycle paths and low volume of car traffic. Hop on a bike and experience the city through the eyes of a local during a relaxed cycling tour led by an enthusiastic guide. This way, you will discover the most beautiful (hidden) spots in Malm\u00f6!<\/li>\n<li><strong>E-boat canal cruise. <\/strong>Experience Malm\u00f6 from the water on an eco-friendly, electric boat tour along the canal that runs straight through the city!
