Discover Lemming

Routes, connections to the river and dated building history give Lemming several distinctive features. The Banestien Lysbro–Lemming starts in Lysbro and continues to Lemming; after Skægkær, the Kjellerup Banesti follows the course of the Lemming Å. Lemming Bakker is within walking distance of the town. Holm Mølle has had a watermill since the 13th century, while the tower of Lemming Kirke dates from 1786. When planning your stay, you can choose between a focus on the trails and historical topics.

Banestien trails with different points of reference

For the Banestien Lysbro–Lemming, the two place names are the main points of reference: it starts in Lysbro and continues to Lemming. The Kjellerup Banesti, by contrast, is defined by its connection to the river; after Skægkær, it follows the course of the Lemming Å. This gives you a clear distinction when planning your route: the first route is notable for continuing to Lemming, while the second follows the river. Consider whether you would rather choose your route based on its destination or the course of the river. This lets you consider the two Banestien trails in terms of their respective characteristics.

Include Lemming Bakker on foot

Lemming Bakker is within walking distance of Lemming; specific conditions for walking there may vary. Bear this in mind if you want to include it in your plans. It differs from the Banestien trails: here, the point is the walking distance between Lemming and Lemming Bakker, whereas the routes offer points of reference through their continuation to Lemming or the course of the Lemming Å. You can therefore consider walking to Lemming Bakker and following a route as different elements of your travel plans.

Mill history and church tower

Holm Mølle has had a watermill since the 13th century. This dates back to the Middle Ages and provides a different historical reference from the precise year given for the tower of Lemming Kirke. The tower is at the western end of the nave and dates from 1786. The distinction is important: 1786 refers to the tower, not to the nave as a whole. The nave is the main space of the church; the description locates the tower at its western end. Thus, a long history of milling and a precisely dated building feature stand side by side. Anyone interested in architecture and historical development will find two different points of interest here: the historical dating of a watermill and the date of a specific tower.

Choose the right focus for your stay

When looking for a holiday home in Lemming, your preferred travel interests can be a useful starting point. Would you like to include a Banesti trail in your plans, are you drawn to the Kjellerup Banesti along the Lemming Å, or are you mainly interested in the historical details? Lemming Bakker’s walking distance from the town is another aspect you can consider. These questions can help you decide which topics you want your stay to focus on. Tailor your search to what you want to experience: the trails, a walk to Lemming Bakker or the different historical features.
