According to wholevehicles, Denmark is located in Northern Europe, bordering the Baltic Sea and the North Sea. The country is comprised of the Jutland Peninsula and over 400 islands, with only 74 of them inhabited. The largest island is Zealand, where Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, is located. The Danish landscape features rolling hills in the east and flat plains in the west. The country also has numerous lakes, streams, fjords and beaches. Denmark’s highest point is Yding Skovhøj at 173 meters above sea level. Denmark’s climate is temperate with mild winters and cool summers. Average temperatures range from -2 to 11 degrees Celsius in January to 11 to 20 degrees Celsius in July. Rainfall averages around 710 millimeters per year but varies from region to region with higher amounts closer to the coast and lower amounts inland. Snowfall usually occurs between December and March but can be seen as early as October or as late as April depending on location. Denmark also experiences strong winds due to its proximity to the North Sea which can cause coastal flooding during storm surges. Inland flooding can also occur when rivers overflow due to heavy rain or melting snow in springtime. See bridgat for weather information in Denmark.
