In the center of the largest lake region of Denmark is located a small town named Silkeborg. On one side the town is adjacent to Gudenaa - the longest river in the country. The other side of the town borders with several large lakes and a forest.
Tourists, who come to the city, are offered to try a large choice of activities including water sports, golf, riding rented bicycles and small motorcycles, or just walking in the city’s suburbs.
