Lake Sundet is located immediately to the east of the town of Faaborg. There are several parking options in the area. The chosen parking is at Sundbrinkens børnehus, where there is an electric car charging station. The site is suitable for both walking and cycling. The largest part is a gravel path, but also an area with a paved cycle path, which is separated from car traffic. The circular route around the lake is about 3 km.
The extended route of 4,65 km, is only for walking, and is known as the most beautiful exercise track in Denmark. Follow the signs, see the picture below. See GPX file.
