Four EuroVelo routes go through Denmark: EV3 Pilgrims Route, EV7 Sun Route, EV10 Baltic Sea Cycle Route and EV12 North Sea Cycle Route. EV12 runs 820 km in Denmark. In Denmark the EuroVelo routes follow the national cycle routes, and six of the 11 national routes are part of the EuroVelo network. Dansk Cykelturisme has been the national EuroVelo coordination centre for Denmark since 2016.
