East Lake Bath

Highlight • Beach

I haven't seen anything like that in Germany. Bathing lake area with changing rooms, showers, sauna and a jetty in the lake to dive into. And everything in first-class quality.

View from a pier of Hjejleselskabet, which offers several routes on the Silkeborg lakes. For more information about timetables, prices and booking, see www. hjejleselskabet.dk.

Remstrup Å is a 2.5 kilometer long part of the Gudenåen that runs from Brassø in the south to the port of Silkeborg in the north, where the river empties into Silkeborg Langsø.

Silkeborg Chamber Lock

Highlight • Structure

Kammerslusen in Silkeborg is a lock that forms a passage where the Gudenå is dammed at the former Silkeborg paper mill.

The new lock was inaugurated on August 1, 1920. The lock is still in use today, but mainly by canoes and smaller motorboats.
