Slottsskogen, Gothenburg

A sprawling verdant oasis with winding path make Slottsskogen one of the favourite places to go in Gothenburg Sweden where you can get close to Gotland ponies, elks and other Nordic animals. Located to the southwest of the city centre, the fairy tale like European Park is home to the Natural History Museum, Gothenburg Botanical Gardens and a zoo.

Miles of asphalt paths running through open fields and woodlands are great for running and taking a stroll. The outdoor gym at the northern end and a running track at the southern end of the park are places where you can visit for a workout. In a bike ride you can explore the interior of the path along the forested trails all the way to Vastra Frolunda.
