Can you take a pram or stroller on a DSB train in Denmark?
Travelling with small children.
Short answer
A pram or folding stroller always travels free on DSB trains. On regional trains and S-trains you do not need a separate ticket for it, but on IC and IC Lyn you must book a free pram space ticket. To travel free, the pram must be used to carry children (an empty one is also fine), you must load and unload it yourself, and the wheels must be lockable. A small folding buggy can also travel as luggage if it fits within 100 x 60 x 30 cm.
Why
- Prams have their own marked areas in the train.
- The free pram space ticket secures a place on busy IC and IC Lyn trains.
- Lockable wheels keep the pram in place while the train moves.
Details
A paying adult can bring up to 2 children under 12 free on DSB trains.
Tip
Book the free pram space ticket at the same time as your own ticket, so you do not forget it on IC trains.
What may differ
Other operators follow section 4 of the joint national travel rules, so rules on buses and local trains may differ.
Common misconception
You have to pay for a pram on InterCity trains.
What actually happens
The pram is free on all DSB trains; on IC and IC Lyn you just need the free pram space ticket.
