On Tuesday, August 13, the 11 parties involved in the great Gudenåsti project met and shook hands and pledged to do everything possible to finish by the end of 2025! There are plenty of things that can delay – high water levels, permits that take time and much more – but the parties agreed to do what is possible. The 11 parties are Vejle, Hedensted, Horsens, Skanderborg, Silkeborg, Viborg, Favrskov and Randers municipalities as well as three units of the Danish Nature Agency – Trekantområdet, Søhøjlandet and Kronjylland. After the meeting, Hans Brok-Brandi, Skanderborg Municipality, showed us around Skimminghøj – today a campsite for canoeists in particular, where a boat hall will be built for the boat Gammel Turisten; the boat hall will serve as a hammock hotel, concert venue, etc.
