All activities in Gammel Rye and the surrounding area
Gl. Rye is a cozy village close to Himmelbjerget – about a ten-minute drive. The town has a population of around 1,400 and is part of Skanderborg Municipality. Old Rye is characterized by former centers of power and monasteries. Several kings have been crowned in Gl. Rye Church. St. Søren’s Church has an exciting history as an old pilgrimage church. Øm Monastery Museum is just a 5-minute drive from us. If you are into activities and other good things, we recommend a visit a little further down the road in Gl. Rye Antik.
Gl. Rye Mølle is located on a hilltop in Gl. Rye, where there is a magnificent view of forests and heather hills. There are also several hiking trails in the area, which start from the museum. Put on your hiking boots and take a stroll in the protected heather hills, which is the closest activity to Lyng Dal Hotel & Restaurant. There are many museums close to Gl. Rye. Among other things, there is the opportunity to say hello to the Grauballemanden or see Asger Jorn’s paintings at Museum Jorn in Silkeborg. Silkeborg is a cozy shopping city with a large pedestrian area in the city center. It takes about 20 minutes from Lyng Dal Hotel & Restaurant.
Gold courses, boat trips and horse riding are other options. Read more about times, routes and opening hours at www.visitskanderborg.dk or visit Ry Tourist Information if you are visiting this beautiful and cozy harbor town anyway.
