'''Denmark''' is a country in [[Northern Europe]]. It is a member state of the [[European Union]] as well as the [[Schengen Agreement]].
According to [http://wikitravel.org/en/Denmark#By_thumb wikitravel] hitchhiking is legal in Denmark except on highways. Most drivers speak English, not German. There was a hitchhiking project done in 2006 called ''The Search for Danish Mentality''. As , and in 2007 there was a follow-up the same organization – MS – is running another project this year called [[The Search for the Commons]].
When hitching on slip roads to the highway, I found people more easily stopped rather stop stop if you were are at the bottom of the slip road than at the top of the slip roadit. Most ramps in Denmark have enough space for cars to stop.

Hitch you self a ride to Padborg, in south Jutland just before the [[Germany|German]] border. Here you'll find the country's largest truckstop, if not ask around. Most trucks leaving from Denmark stop here. With a little luck you'll find someone going to most destinations in Europe.
