This is a pleasant run in central Aalborg combining a couple of parks and a nice path along a small lake. We’ve mapped an 8 km loop to use as a guideline, but you can shorten it by just focusing on Kildeparken & Mølleparken parks.
Kildeparken. CC: Andreas Strandfelt aka AaB-ern
Start at Kildeparken, with an ~0.7 km loop around the paths of this small 1800s park known for its ‘singing trees’ and sculptures. Then head on the path exiting the park west to Mølleparken, passing the Skovdalen Atletikstadion running track. Mølleparken features a pond, statues, an outdoor exercise facility, and a 2.5 km jogging trail, within which lies the Lysløjpen, a 45m gradient! Here, retrace your steps for a shorter run, or continue for our loop option.
Loop Option: Continue west of Mølleparken to Stolpedalsparken, and then Svalegårdsvej to access the 0.8 km path along Kridtgraven Lake, which has nice water views. From the northern end of the lake, use the Annebergstien path headed east, completing the route using Annebergvej and then the road south along the edge of Almen Kirkegård cemetery.

The 7-8 km of waterfront paths along Limfjord Sound are among the highlights of running in Aalborg. We've put together a route that can be used as a guideline, includes a section across the water in Lindhom.
Scenic running on lovely gravel roads along the water and past farm fields. Egholm Island is reachable via a ferry, located 2 km west of Aalborg centre, that takes 5 minutes and runs every 1/2 hour. And very few cars!
A short, scenic run in Østerådalen, a wetlands park in the southern part of Aalborg. A series of trails and some boardwalks wind around several bodies of water, with nice views of the wetlands and grasses.
A nice run in the southeastern part of Aalborg that combines three elements: Bundgårdsparken park; the campus of Aalborg University; and the small Gug Alper hiking area. All connected by multi-use paths.
Paths & lawns surround an 1800s manor house in a park famed for its many varieties of apple tree. 5-6 km of nice gravel trails wind around green, open terrain. Located in the Vejgård area in southern Aalborg.
