Shelter i Lisbjerg gammel skov

The shelter belongs to Aarhus Municipality and can be booked via [Book Naturen](https://booknaturen.aarhuskommune.dk/sted/shelter-i-lisbjerg-gammel-skov/?s1=3012&s2=20/01/2026)

The old part of Lisbjerg Forest is designated as a 'silent forest', which means that the focus is on the quiet nature experience, peace and contemplation. The forest is therefore perfect for hiking or mushroom hunting, and if you are lucky, you can experience the forest's rich wildlife, which includes deer, foxes, hares and pheasants.

Parts of the forest are designated as untouched forest, which means that neither trees are cut down nor planted. The forest is allowed to take care of itself, and when old trees die of old age or fall over, it provides good growth conditions for organisms that depend on dead wood.

**Practical information**:

• When you book the shelter, you have automatically booked the corresponding campfire site.

• You must bring your own firewood from home.

• You are welcome to collect dry branches from the forest floor.

• There are no waste, water or toilet facilities at the shelter.

• You must take your own waste home, so remember to bring garbage bags.

**Route directions**:

Lisbjerg Skov is located approx. 11 kilometers from Aarhus City Center and is easily accessible by bicycle, car and bus

There is an entrance to Lisbjerg Skov from Randersvej (at no. 450). There is a low Swedish red sign with the text "Lisbjerg Skov". Follow the gravel road approx. 400 m until it turns 90 degrees to the left.

Follow the forest road past the memorial stone and the red barrier. On your left hand side (towards the north) you have Ruholm bog. After approx. 220 meters the forest road splits - here you must keep left. After about 30 meters, at the gray water well, turn left onto a small track that leads through the old forest. Continue along the track for about 300 meters. From the parking lot, it is about a 10-minute walk to the shelter.

At the red forest barrier, you can alternatively follow the road, Trige Skovvej, to the left, north of the bog. About 75 meters after entering the forest, keep right and walk about 100 meters into the forest, along the forest edge on a small path.

Buses go to Lisbjerg – the forest is within walking distance from Randersvej.
