    The Ans Circle Walk can be walked both clockwise and counterclockwise. The route is a combination of footpaths and constructed paths in somewhat hilly terrain that is not optimal for everyone.

    Both young and old can also try their strength at the activity zones along the route, including a balance course, crosses and ball games, and "jump with the animals." We hope you will enjoy the walk around and through Ans town. Enjoy your hike!

    Beautiful nature, local history, and fun activities

    The Ans Circle Walk goes through mixed forest, residential areas, and green wide-ranging areas that invite rest and relaxation at picnic tables. The route passes beautiful nature by the stream, the canal, viewpoints, and offers local historical interpretation. Read about the waterworks hill and the town's history and enjoy the view from the top of the hill.

    Author’s recommendation

    However, there are many options to shorten the hike, including the cross route and shortcut by the waterworks hill.

    Safety information

    Dogs on a leash are welcome on the route, but remember to "clean up" after them. You may have your dog off-leash in the area's dog forest, which the route passes through. Remember your own trash and to respect the plants and animals of nature.

    Tips and suggestions

    There is a public toilet close to the route at the bus station on Søgade and one at the shore of Ans Lake.

    Make space and smile at each other on the route.

    About the Ans Circle Walk

    The route was established in close cooperation between volunteers, engaged local citizens, and Silkeborg Municipality. The route is one of several paths created under the project Paths and Trails in Your Area, supported by Silkeborg Municipality and the Nordea Foundation.

    In Denmark's Outdoor Capital, we want to support the connection between welfare, culture, nature, and outdoor activities with a focus on increasing access to urban nearby paths, trails, and routes and testing new initiatives that increase citizens' motivation to get out into nature and play, walk, run, and cycle in the local area.

    Enjoy your hike!
