Walking route through Aarhus University Park
The 5.4 km route begins and ends at the Natural History Museum in the University Park in the centre of Aarhus. It follows paved paths through three parks – the University Park, Vennelyst Park and the Botanical Gardens – in central Aarhus.
The route is particularly suitable for walking or running.
The park by Aarhus University
The Universitetsparken is placed in an open cleft dominated by a well trimmed turf with scattered oaks that form an open wood of oaks with many birds. In the centre of the Universitetsparken, there is a brook that continues through the Vennelystparken where nature has been given a freer rein.
Animal life
On the way, you pass big and small lakes with all the birds that traditionally live by park lakes, for instance ducks, seagulls, coots and grey herons.
