Silkeruten

Silkeruten er en 12 km lang Natur-, Kultur- og Oplevelsessti, der omkranser det centrale Silkeborg. Ruten er udviklet i samarbejde med Naturstyrelsen, der også står for at udbedre stien og sikre farbarheden.

Covering 11.8 km, this is a substantial hike requiring a reasonable base fitness. Most walkers complete it in about 2 hours and 38 minutes.

This loop trail is a practical choice for day hikers: you start and end at the same spot, with no shuttle or pick-up required.

As a Local Walking Network (LWN) route, this trail has a strong community character. It serves both regular local walkers and visitors discovering the area for the first time.
