Waste and toilets:
You can find waste facilities for picnic use and toilets at the station. If the container is full because many people have visited before you, please take your waste with you and do not leave it outside the container. Forest animals and birds will very quickly spread the waste over a large area.

There are primitive campsites where you can pitch your tent for two days without seeking permission; these are at Køromvej in the northern part of Jægersborg Hegn and at the entrance at Strandmøllevej. Here, you will also find a shelter which, however, needs booking in advance.

Bonfire sites are found at Tørvehus Sletten, Bøllemosen, Terrasserne, at Skodsborgvej, Strandmøllen and Stampen. The bonfire sites may be used without pre-booking and you may collect twigs and branches from the forest floor.
