Highlights of Riis Forest
Riis Forest invites you to take long walks along numerous path systems, which weave their way between the tall trees. During the summer, the forest is in full bloom, and you can enjoy the shade under the green trees. Riis Forest is, however, particularly popular during the spring, when the forest floor is covered by a blanket of aromatic ramson.
The forest itself changes with the seasons. During autumn, you will be enchanted by the gorgeous colour palette, and during winter, the forest may be covered by a blanket of snow. In Riis Forest, you will also find one of the most beautiful views of the Bay of Aarhus, Mols Bjerge and Aarhus Ø. From here, you can spot the Iceberg (Isbjerget), an award-winning architectonic residential building.

Good to know about Riis Forest
If you need to get into shape, Riis Forest is home to an outdoor training park on the edge of the forest. If you move outside the area and towards the water, you will arrive at Aarhus Ø, the newly developed district. Here, you can also take a dip at the Harbour Bath (Havnebadet). On the other side of Dronnings Margrethes Vej, you can find Trøjborg, a cosy and local district in Aarhus.
The edge of the forest runs just outside Aarhus, in extension to Skovvejen. The forest is just 15 minutes by bike from the centre, and several buses stop nearby.
