Sailing trips at Roskilde Fjord
As the only place in the world, during the summer season you can step directly from the experience of the original, 1000-year-old Viking ships in the Viking Ship Hall to the Museum Harbour, where numerous Nordic wooden boats and impressive full-scale reconstructions of Viking ships are moored.
Step aboard one of the descendants of the Viking ships – a handcrafted Nordic wooden boat – and row out onto Roskilde Fjord, just as the Vikings did a thousand years ago.
