Freshwater Center AQUA

AQUA in Silkeborg, Denmark, is a first class Activity and Adventure Centre with the largest freshwater aquarium of Northern Europe and a great nature park with various animals, as well as an extensive playground with much fun and variety. AQUA is an untraditional aquarium "turned upside down". The aquarium is built into several big outdoor lakes. Through large panoramic window panes you look deep into these lakes. Here you get very close to playful otters, ferocious pikes, hunting grebes - and a lot of other animals in their natural surroundings.

Apart from the park and the large aquarium lakes AQUA has a night aquarium, several thematic exhibitions, touch tank where you may touch the fish, specialized aquaria, cinema, and services for the schools with school rooms and laboratories.

Meet the zoo keepers of AQUA. Join them when they feed the animals, listen to them when they talk about the magic life of the Danish lakes and water streams. We have a daily activity programme including feeding of the animals.
