Put & Take Lakes

In addition to the many natural lakes and waterways there are a number of local Put & Take lakes where the whole family can enjoy a good day out. Plus, we can almost guarantee fresh caught trout for dinner.

The Silkeborg Lakes and the River Guden are a popular destination for anglers, as is the Mid-Jutland area generally.

Put & Take lakes provide a convenient and enjoyable day out for experienced anglers and beginners alike. Your chances of making a catch won't get much better, and most lakes provide refreshment facilities.
