    Hiking

    H. C. Andersen (born April 2, 1805 in Odense, died August 4, 1875 in Copenhagen) was a Danish poet and writer who is world-famous for his fairy tales.

    In H. C. Andersen's diaries he tells of several hikes in the area around Silkeborg - among other things. to Himmelbjerget. For example, on May 30, 1850, he wrote about the beautiful view from Himmelbjerget over the Gudenåen and on to Silkeborg.

    Hiking

    If you don't like the tower on the mountain, you can still look at Hans Christian Andersen's bench and enjoy the lake view from there. The path is pretty steep though.
