Discover Lynderup by Hjarbæk Fjord

Lynderup combines the landscape of Hjarbæk Fjord with beaches, protected meadows, historic buildings and a variety of opportunities for active days on holiday. Anyone looking for a holiday apartment or holiday house in Lynderup will find a base here for different types of trips: swimming and coastal landscapes, nature observation, golf, cycling and cultural and historical discoveries can be combined according to your interests.

Fjord landscape and nature at Lynderup Beach

Lynderup Beach is located on the northern side of Hjarbæk Fjord by a newly developed holiday-home area on Lynderupvej. The coast at Lynderup includes heathland and beach meadows protected under Section 3. This gives the coastal landscape a distinctive character between water and open areas. There are also extensive meadows around Lynderupgård in the surroundings of Hjarbæk Fjord.

The area around Hjarbæk Fjord near Lynderup belongs to the Natura 2000 site Lovns Bredning, Hjarbæk Fjord and Skals, Simested og Nørre Ådal, Skravad Bæk. The fjord is particularly important for resting waterfowl in autumn and winter. During this period, many thousands of waterfowl gather there. If you would like to include nature observation in your trip, this seasonal feature provides a particular reason to get to know Lynderup outside the traditional bathing season.

Swimming, waterfront breaks and access to the fjord

The bathing water quality at Lynderup Vest was classified as excellent for 2023. At Lynderup Beach, there is a small grassy car park with a recreational area and a table-and-bench set. This provides a specific place to pause by the water, without having to focus your visit to the beach exclusively on swimming.

The established fjord access facilities include a kayak jetty with seating and information, as well as a recreational area with a picnic shelter, toilet building and car park. The two areas are a natural stopping point for cyclists and pedestrians in Fjordklyngen. Those travelling with several generations can therefore structure the day in different ways: while some actively experience the fjord, others have space for a break by the water or a picnic.

Golf and cycling around Lynderup

Hjarbæk Fjord Golfcenter has 27 holes, many of which offer views of the water. The 9-hole Vest course is also used as a pay-and-play course and is well suited to beginners. This makes it a possible choice for travellers who would like to try golf without dedicating their entire holiday to one sport.

There is also a clear connection point for cyclists: since 2026, Hjarbæk Fjord Golfcenter has had a depot for the MTB route from Skringstrup to Viborg. The route passes through holiday-home areas, along small paths and gravel roads, and runs close to Hjarbæk Fjord. When looking for accommodation, you can therefore consider whether you would rather begin your holiday days at the beach, by the fjord or along a cycling route. The fjord access described above is also a useful reference point for pedestrians and cyclists.

Church and manor as cultural attractions

Lynderup Church has a transept and a nave dating from the Romanesque period. The porch on the south side of the nave and the tower at the western end were added in the late Middle Ages. The three-winged main building of Lynderupgård was listed as a protected monument in 1918. Together with the fjord landscape, this creates a destination where nature and architectural history stand side by side. If you are looking for a quieter activity between a day at the beach, a round of golf or a cycling tour, these historic sites can form the cultural focus of your day.

Which base suits your trip?

The main advantage of a holiday apartment in Lynderup is the opportunity to combine different holiday paces. Nature enthusiasts can focus on the fjord, the meadows and the seasonally important birdlife. Active travellers will find opportunities for golf, MTB and the fjord access facilities.
