Lovely shelter site by the Gudenå River
This scenic nature campsite is located in the southern part of the Gudenå River, not far from the village of Nim. The site features three shelters, each offering views of the river. It is an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts travelling along the Gudenå River either on foot or by canoe or kayak. The site is generally quite popular, so it is recommended to book in advance.
Facilities
There is no car park at the shelter site, as it is intended for outdoor tourists. However, access is possible both from the Gudenå Trail and via a landing stage from the river side. The jetty also doubles as a relaxing spot – feel free to sit here with your feet in the water.
Each of the three shelters accommodates up to seven people and includes its own table and bench set. There is a composting toilet and a water tap, which is available during the summer season.
Dogs are welcome at the site, but they must be kept on a lead.
