- Egå_Engsø abstract "Egå Engsø is an artificial lake and wetland site located in the north of the town of Aarhus between Vejlby, Risskov and Lystrup. Engsø means 'meadow lake' and Egå means 'Oak stream', referring to the stream that drains the lake into the Aarhus bay. The lake area is bordered by the Djursland motorway to the north and the Aarhus-Grenaa railway and the municipal heating pipes from Studstrup Power Station to the south and east.It was created by re-flooding meadows on land previously drained in the 1950s for agricultural use. By the 1990s the water quality and natural ecosystem in and around the Egå river into which the site drained had declined due to the effect of nitrate fertilizer (eutrophication) use, through intensive farming in the area. Aarhus Municipality, Aarhus County and the Danish Forest and Nature Agency resolved to construct the lake as part of Vandmiljøplan II (English: Action Plan for the Aquatic Environment II) from 1998 to reduce this effect through bacterial denitrification. Another major reason for initiating the project, have been the need for a strengthened defence against increasing rainfalls. The lake was created alongside work on the new Djursland motorway, and completed in 2006. Aarhus municipality is single owner.The lake covers approximately 115 hectares (280 acres), with another ~50 hectares (120 acres) hectares of meadow and paths. It is not possible to reach the lake edge in many places, which are reserved for the grazing of cattle which help maintain the natural meadowland. The amount of water in the lake, varies a great deal (by design) with weather and season, but under normal conditions, the average depth is about 1 m. Water levels can rise by an additional meter or more. The lake contains a number of fish species, fishing is prohibited however, as is swimming.On the south brink, there is a bird hide erected in 2007, whose construction was funded by Australian wine firm Banrock Station. The lake attracts many different bird species in high numbers, with 169 species registered up to 2010.A path c. 5 km long (with each km marked) runs round the outside of the lake, suitable for walking, running or biking. There are 2 parking lots, near the motorway junction from Lystrupvej at the north east corner and from Viengevej in the south east corner. There is also access by bike or on foot from Terp and from Vejby passing underneath the railway line on the eastern side. On the southern edge lies an activity and learning area for children and schools, modelled on a Stone Age settlement, and a number of shelters which may be booked for camping. It is a popular area and it is a statutory goal of the Aarhus municipality to make it publicly accessible and attractive for the citizens.".
