Where can you park a rental e-scooter in Copenhagen?
Only in about 400 marked parking areas.
Short answer
In Copenhagen rental e-scooters may stand only in about 400 marked parking areas outside the no-rental zone. In the Lime app you can end your ride only at a set spot, and the app checks with GPS that you are there. Parking outside the rules can lead to warnings, fees and, if it happens again, suspension of your account. Wherever you park, put the scooter so it is legal and does not block others or make people trip over it.
Why
- About 400 marked parking areas.
- GPS checks the spot before the ride ends.
- Wrong parking can cost fees.
Details
Complaints about a badly placed rental scooter go to the rental company, whose contact details are on the scooter.
Tip
Check the parking spots on the app map before you set off, so you do not end up looking for one at your destination.
What may differ
Fees and the number of parking areas are set by the operator and the city and can change.
Common misconception
You can leave a rental e-scooter anywhere on the pavement when you are done.
What actually happens
In Copenhagen the ride can only end in a marked parking area.
