Installation possible at Tim Kirkevej

Canoeing on Tim Å is a scenic experience and offers various levels of difficulty. The first part of the stretch – from Torstedvej between Torsted and Ørnhøj to Vandmøllevej between Torsted and Tim – is challenging with dense vegetation and new rapids with relatively fast currents. The river is cleared at the beginning of the season of fallen trees and low-hanging branches, but new obstacles appear continuously, and it is a good idea to bring a saw if you venture out on this part.

The stretch from Vandmøllevej to Åvænget in Tim is a bit easier, but at least just as scenic. Just upstream from the railway bridge in Tim is the first of the new canoe bridges. Here you will also find a shelter with plenty of space for a large family, and there are parking options for canoe trailers.

From this canoe bridge, all levels can paddle the last part of the river. You can either land where the river crosses Tim Kirkevej – or you can continue out over Tim Enge to where Tim Enge meets Stadil Fjord at Stadilvej. Here lies the second canoe bridge, where there are also parking options as well as picnic tables.

The water level in Tim Enge can occasionally be so low that you have to get out of the canoe and pull it for a distance. On a windstill day, you can continue out into Stadil Fjord and down to the swimming area Alrum, where there are both toilet facilities, running water, a shelter site, and good parking options. Canoeing on Stadil Fjord is not recommended at wind speeds over 5 m/s.
