Silkeborg - Steamer Trip

(Local Name: Hjejlen) In summer visitors can take a trip on the world's oldest paddle-steamer "Hjejlen"- which is moored in Silkeborg's museum park - through one of the most beautiful parts of Denmark to the Himmelberg (147m/482ft). From the top of the hill there is a splendid view over the surrounding forests and lakes.

The Hjejlen is the oldest operational paddle steamer in the world.
