Excursion Fjordland bike tour at Aalborg

Cruise line: Silversea
Difficulty:

Denmark is known as a bike friendly country and bicycles are both a sustainable means of transportation and part of the local lifestyle. We now invite you to experience Aalborg on two wheels, like the locals, on a beautiful and enjoyable guided bike ride along the fjord. Get close to both the history of Aalborg and Denmark and find out more about the Danish way of living on this charming bike ride, which also includes an outdoors refreshment stop.

Ride along the harbor

The ride along the harbor front takes you past two of Aalborg's pride and local juggernauts during the industrial era; C.W Obels Tobacco factory, one of the area's largest factories and also the Danish liquor factory and the producer of the world-famous schnapps, Red Aalborg Aquavit. None of them are in use these days and the area is undergoing a transformation to become Aalborg's new modern city, called Cloud City after the 30-meter-high artwork by the same name, made by the Argentinian artist Tomás Saracenos.

Vestre Fjord Park, Embark on the M/S Egholm Ferry, Ride along the harbor

Experience a brand-new recreation area in Aalborg. RIde through the Vestre Fjord Park, an outdoor place for locals and guests, meant for swimming, relaxing and socializing. The area recently won a special price for its creative architecture and its interaction with the surrounding nature. In the middle of the Limfjord sits the beautiful island, Egholm.

Enjoy the short ferry ride across the water and bike to the nearby public lawn where we'll make a refreshment stop and re-fuel before we start to make our way back to the ship.
