There are plenty of opportunities to explore Aarhus on your own. Immerse yourself in the new and modern, the old and historic, and most of it can be reached on foot or by bicycle. Choose between a tour of the city, through the parks, along the waterfront or through the large forests.

Are you going by foot, bike or bus? You will have plenty of opportunities to get around when you want to explore Aarhus. Get inspired to take a walk in the city's many streets and quarters. Rent a bike and enjoy the nature along the coastline towards Risskov or through the forest on your way to Moesgård Beach.

If you plan to explore the city centre we recommend you to use your feet as a means of transportation but if you want to see a bit more of the city and decide the route and speed yourself while getting some exercise you can easily use a city bike.

If you want to get out and enjoy nature but aren't quite sure where to go, you can find inspiration in the guide to hiking and running routes, which offers plenty of wonderful nature experiences. There are routes along the coast, through parks, around lakes, over hills and through forests.
