The southern wharf is also home to the “paddle steamer” Svanen, which sails to Bramslev Bakker and Mariager throughout the summer. Hobro offers a wealth of dining establishments and all kinds of lodging. Campgrounds and a hostel are close to town, and Hotel Amerika lies in the beautiful Hobro Østerskov.
