Surroundings
Go out to Silkeborg
Silkeborg is located close to the park and is a lively city on the lake Silkeborg Langsø. Walk through the centre, have coffee on a terrace by the water and visit the weekly market where local producers display vegetables, cheese and fish. In the Silkeborg museum you can see the Tollund Man, a peat bog body more than 2,000 years old that has been surprisingly well preserved. After a morning in the city, you cycle back via the lakes.
Sail along the Gudenå
The river Gudenå is Denmark's longest river and begins just near Silkeborg. Rent a canoe or kayak in the city and paddle through the lake district Søhøjlandet, where the water becomes narrower and the banks are densely overgrown with alder and reeds. The route between Silkeborg and Ry is one of the most popular day trips on the water.
Visit ARoS in Aarhus
ARoS Aarhus Art Museum is one of the largest art museums in Scandinavia and is about 44 km from Silkeborg. On top of the building is a circular walkway of colored glass, Your Rainbow Panorama by Olafur Eliasson, which lets you see the city through an ever-changing color filter. Inside, the permanent collection and temporary exhibitions alternate across multiple floors. After visiting the museum, it is a fifteen-minute walk to Aarhus's old city center.
Taste wine from Jutland
Skærvadhus Vineyard is located about 42 km from Silkeborg and is one of the northernmost vineyards in Denmark. Taste the estate's own wines on site and learn how grapes grow at this latitude. A visit offers a surprisingly different picture of the Danish countryside.

A wonderful place to stay for a few days or even a week. Clean, well-maintained restrooms and a small pool. The train to Aarhus and Silkeborg is a 5-minute walk away. Friendly staff and good breakfast service. In short, highly recommended.

It was a very pleasant surprise to arrive at this beautiful spot. Terassen Camping is definitely worth a visit—or several. The view is fantastic, and even from our site—where we didn’t pay extra for a view—it’s absolutely lovely.
We’ll definitely be back, as it seems we still have plenty of great experiences to look forward to.this is a translation, click here for the original
Meget positiv overraskelse at ankomme til denne smukke plet. Terassen camping er klart et besøg eller flere værd. Udsigten er fantastisk og selv fra vores plads, hvor vi ikke betalte ekstra for udsigt er den så skøn.
Det kan sagtens være vi kommer igen, da vi tilsyneladende har mange gode oplevelser til gode. -
