About Havreballe Skov

Havreballe Skov dog park is located in Aarhus, close to Tivoli Friheden and Atletion, surrounded by Stadion Allé, Jyllands Allé, and Havreballe Skovvej. Aarhus Municipality manages the area, which is not fenced, so your dog can only be off the lead if you have full control over it. There are tables and benches and a bin, and the forest is open around the clock.

The proximity to major attractions means there is plenty of parking. If you choose the large parking area at Havreballe Skovvej, you have a small path leading directly into the dog park. Remember to clean up after your dog – even off the paths.

Everything you need to know about dog parks

Rules and responsibilities in dog parks

Keep your dog under control

Make sure your dog is always under control and comes when you call. That way everyone has a good time.

Pick up after your dog

Always pick up after your dog to keep the area clean and pleasant for other visitors.

Benefits of dog parks

Free play and exercise

Your dog gets the freedom to run free, burn off energy and enjoy the surroundings.

Time in nature

Tips for a good visit

Bring water

Always remember to bring water, especially on hot days, as not all dog parks have a water point.

Dress for the conditions

Dog parks can get muddy in the rain. Wear clothes and shoes that can handle a bit of dirt.
