Profile

Birkhede Camping is a family-run campsite that has been owned and operated by three generations of the same family since 1962. It is beautifully situated in the heart of the Danish Lake District, on the shores of Lake Knudsø and …close to the towns of Ry and Silkeborg. The scenic surroundings offer excellent opportunities for relaxation, activities and experiences for the whole family. The campsite is located in a protected, hilly Ice Age landscape surrounded by heather-clad hills, forests and lakes. With direct access to Lake Knudsø, the Gudenå River and the Silkeborg Lakes, there are plenty of opportunities to enjoy the water. Guests can rent canoes, SUP boards, rowing boats and kayaks or make use of the campsite's marina.
