Jægersborgs Hegn

Jægersborgs Hegn is a 435-hectare lush forest of oak, beech, ash, birch and fir. The forest is located on the coast of Øresund and borders on Jægersborgs Dyrehave. In 2015 is was appointed a UNESCO World Heritage Site because of the system of hunting roads that was constructed in the forest in the 1680s.

There are several hiking paths in Jægersborgs Hegn and ample opportunity for getting around and taking a closer look at the scenery. The forest also has marked riding paths. On you way around, you will most likely notice several burial mounds as they are found all over the forest.

If you have a fishing license, it is possible to fish in some of the lakes and bogs in the forest. There are also several fire pits and if you wish to spend the night, it is possible to do so in tent or shelter.
