The Aarhus region deserves to be experienced from a bike. On the bike, you will get up close with the nature, feel the breeze on your face and make unforgettable memories on your trip around the region

The association Kulturringen – Culture by Bike presents various options for more than 500 kilometres of bike trails across the entire Aarhus region, which brings you past fascinating cultural attractions and stunning scenery. Take in the diverse scenery and charming villages in the Danish Lake District or ride on the Ancient Road, where nature and history collide. 

The unequalled MTB trails in the vast, hilly forests throughout the entire region attract mountain bikers from everywhere. In the forests around Denmark’s outdoor capital, Silkeborg, any MTB cyclist can find a trail just right for her or him. Furthermore, by Hald Ege close to Viborg, technique and balance can be tested on the trail passing through Bækkelund.
