Forstbotanisk Have, also called Forsthaven, is a beautiful nature oasis with about 900 different species of trees and shrubs.

The garden was laid out in 1923, and in addition to what has been planted over time, it also contains several majestic, old oak and beech trees from before the garden was built. The trees form a kind of upper floor in the garden and contribute to the wonderful, troll-like feel that characterizes Forsthaven.

An excursion destination close to the city

Forstbotanisk Have is not further from the city than you can easily jump into your trainers or hiking boots and set off. The garden is located in the south of Aarhus, hidden by Marselisborg Castle and castle park and The memorial park, which are ideal to visit when you are in the area. Both nature- and city-dwellers can have a great experience in some very special, different natural surroundings.
