Slåensø Lake is located directly south of Borre Lake in the Silkeborg Sønderskov forest area. Due to the limited water supply, the water is very clean. The lake is situated in very hilly terrain and is a popular tourist destination, with Kongestolen (82 m high) located directly south of the lake, offering a beautiful view to the north. Denmark's tallest tree, a Douglas fir over 50 m tall, stands nearby. A good hiking trail leads around the entire lake.

With the burial mound at the top, it is the highest mountain in Denmark. Without the burial mound it is only enough for second place. Regardless of this rating, the climb is considerable by Danish standards and is rewarded with a wide panoramic view. The highest (Møllehøj) and third highest mountain (Ejer Bavnehøj) are located nearby.

The highest natural elevation in Denmark at 170.86 m.

Nice place that I have used since I was very small. You can look over to Himmelbjerg from the top of Sindbjerg and Stoubjerg

Thoroughness down to the last centimeter also exists in Denmark. Møllehøj has been the highest mountain in Denmark since 2005. You can see a millstone, as there used to be a mill here. Today you look across the country or into the adjacent cowshed. More impressive is the Ejer Bavnehøj with its lookout tower, 200 m away. However, it is now only the third highest mountain in Denmark.

Located right by Yding Skov and equipped with a toilet. Denmark's highest point, Yding Skovhøj, is located in the forest. From the parking lot and adjacent stone circle you have a beautiful view over the country.

The Old Oak / The Oak of Christian IV Christian IV's Oak, The King's Oak or The Old Oak are some of the names given to a large, free-standing tree in the easternmost part of Dyrehaven Skanderborg. Over time, the tree has been the center of many events. After the visit of Hereditary Prince Ferdinand and Princess Caroline to Dyrehaven in 1839, there was interest in including the area around the old oak as a party venue. The following year, the first summer festival with drinking and forest ball took place in a decorated dance tent next to the property. It was the start of a rich entertainment life in Dyrehaven. In 1852, confectioner Brandt built a permanent dance floor and a modest inn barn, which was continued by an active social club; forest association. Every Sunday during the season there was dancing and illumination for a fee of 24 shillings for men while entry was free for ladies. At the end of the 19th century, the fairground at the Old Oak lost its importance with the construction of the pavilion. Nowadays the oak tree still stands prominently and in the middle of the festival ground when the ”Smukfest” takes place in the forest in August. But is it correct to name the oak of King Chr.4? In 2009 a dendrochronological study was carried out on the tree, the annual rings were counted and it was concluded that the tree was planted between 1620 and 1719. King Chr.4 lived from 1577 to 1648, so it is not unrealistic that the tree grew in the last years of the king's life. Source: Skanderborg Leksikon

Sindbjerg and Stoubjerg are quite sizeable hill formations with two heather-covered peaks and are situated in a heath area north of Sejs and the lake Borre Sø, about 5 km south-east of Silkeborg. Sindbjerg is 103 m high and Stoubjerg 99 m high. From the top you have a wide view, especially to the south and south-east. You can see all the lakes between Silkeborg and Himmelberg. Sindbjerg and Stovbjerg, like Himmelberg, are known as 'false hills' - hills that formed when the ice eroded away the surrounding landscape. The first part of the word Sindbjerg comes from the Old Norse 'sinder', meaning 'slag' (ash), the by-product of charcoal manufacture. This may indicate that the trees on the hill were once used to make charcoal. The first part of the word Stoubjerg means "room". So there may have been a dolmen on or near the hill, or perhaps there was a legend or the idea of a dwelling place for subterranean beings associated with the hill. This would go well with another legend, according to which it is the tomb of the giant Bark. There is a memorial stone on Sindbjerg for the editor Sophus Sørensen and his commitment to protecting the area. A total of 56 hectares are now under nature protection. This is to ensure that the hills will continue to be overgrown with heather in the future and that the view of e.g. the sky mountain is preserved. In addition to heather, the dominant plants are species such as crowberry, cranberry, tormentil, broom, juniper, aspen, hair hair and various types of moss and lichen. https://www.visitsilkeborg.de/silkeborg/erkunden/sindbjerg-und-stoubjerg-gdk604578
