Charlottenlund and Skovshoved beach
Beach suburb walk — Charlottenlund's slot grounds, Skovshoved harbour, the Arne Jacobsen petrol station. This is a Claude-drafted route awaiting the editor's walk.

1. Charlottenlund S-tog
Coast Line stop, twenty minutes from *København H*. Walk east through the small residential streets toward the slot grounds; ten minutes to the main entrance.

2. Charlottenlund Slot grounds
The 17th-c royal residence (built for Princess Charlotte Amalie, hence the name) is now a Danish research institution. No public access to the building, but the grounds are open — lawns, trees, the small canal that frames the slot.

3. Charlottenlund Strandpark
The beach east of the slot. Slow-curve sand, fine for swimming June–September, walkable year-round. Less famous than *Amager Strand* but quieter; the locals know it. A small pavilion at the southern end.

4. Skovshoved Havn
Small working harbour a short walk south along the coast. A few fishing boats, the seasonal *Skovshoved Fisk* fish stall in summer. The harbour wall has the better view back at the Copenhagen skyline.

5. Arne Jacobsen petrol station
*Skovshoved Tankstation*, *Arne Jacobsen* 1937, on *Kystvejen* a short walk inland from the harbour. The mushroom-canopy in white concrete is one of Jacobsen's earliest mature works. Restored in the 2000s as a working café (the pumps are decorative); sit outside under the canopy with a coffee.

6. Back to Charlottenlund S-tog
Walk back along *Kystvejen* and the coastal path. The Coast Line back to *København H* in twenty minutes; or push north on the same line to *Klampenborg* for the *Dyrehaven* walk.
