The walk around Lyngby Lake is 4.5 km. Lyngby Lake (Danish: Lyngby Sø) is located near Lyngby north of Copenhagen. It is the smallest of the four lakes that are located on Mølleåen (small river). At the east end of the lake is an embankment with a lake promenade, S-train line and Lyngby bypass road. Lyngby Lake has an area of 57.1 hectares.

The lake was formed when the ice melted at the end of the last ice age. The water level in the lake was in the Middle Ages raised artificially to improve the operation of watermills further downstream when Mølleåen floats in direction Øresund. Lyngby Watermill was probably built in around 1000.
A number of canoe, kayak and rowing clubs are based at the lake.
A tour boat operates on the lake with stops both at Lyngby Harbour and Nybro Kro before it continues to Frederiksdal. Boat rental is available both at Havnehytten and Nybro Kro.
