Rio Værebro

Rio Værebro is a small river that flows through Herlev Municipality northwest of Copenhagen. The waterway winds through residential areas, creating natural green corridors within the urban landscape.

The river has flowed through this area long before Herlev Municipality was established in 1909. Since then it has served as a natural divider between neighborhoods and influenced how the area has grown.

The waterway forms part of everyday life for residents who walk along its banks and find green spaces there. These natural areas shape the character of the municipality and offer a quiet contrast to the surrounding neighborhoods.

The river can be reached from various paths that run along its banks and offer easy access. The best time to explore is during dry weather, when the pathways are in good condition.

Despite its small size, the river plays an important role in managing stormwater for the municipality. Its function shows how natural systems support infrastructure within modern residential areas.
