Sagnet om Gudenåen. Sagnet siger, at Gudenåen har fået sit navn efter en ustyrlig fyr, der hed Gudar. Han kidnappede pigen Else fra hendes fars hus i Tinnet Krat, hvor åen har sit udspring. Gudar bandt pigen til en kærre og for at forvirre forfølgerne, kørte han i indviklede sving og slyngninger. Men pigens far søgte hjælp hos en klog mand i Tørring, som kaldte bække og kilder sammen og bad dem om at vise vej. Vandet nåede Gudar ved Randers Fjord. Gudar og hesten druknede, mens den skønne Else slap fri.

Legend of the River Guden. Legend has it that the River Guden has had its name after an wild guy, called Gudar. He kidnapped the girl named Else from her father's house in Tinnet Bushes, where the river has its source. Gudar tied the girl to a cart and to confuse the persecutors, he drove in intricate turns. But the girl's father sought the help of a wise man in Tørring, which called brooks and springs together and asked them to show the way. The water reached Gudar by Randers Fjord. Gudar and the horse drowned while the beautiful Else was rescued.
