Boulognerskogen, Public park in Skövde Municipality, Sweden

Boulognerskogen is Skövde's largest park, stretching from the railway in the west to the old hospital in the east and from Hjovägen in the north to Kavelbrovägen in the south. It holds beech woodland and tall pine stands, with lit walking paths, benches, open event areas, a playground and the bathing lake Boulognersjön with a sandy beach, jetty and disability ramps.

The area was originally pastureland but was transformed into a city park in 1875 and named after the Bois de Boulogne in Paris. This naming reflected the city's modernization efforts and shaped Skövde's development as an urban center.

The park's name comes from the Bois de Boulogne in Paris, laid out in 1852. The old Prästens Fårahage was turned into Skövde's town park in 1875, when society people came here to drink water. The former schweizeri now houses the Student Union of Skövde's building.

The park lies between the railway in the west and the old hospital in the east, with Hjovägen to the north and Kavelbrovägen to the south, close to the travel centre and the University of Skövde. Paths are lit, and the bathing lake Boulognersjön has a sandy beach, a jetty and ramps for disabled access. Water quality is tested weekly during the bathing season.

The grounds host an annual ultra-marathon event where runners test their endurance by completing continuous laps on a set course. This sporting occasion draws athletes from surrounding areas and distinguishes the park as a venue for challenging races.
