Boulognerskogen, Gävle, Municipal park in Gävle, Sweden.

Boulognerskogen is a park on a peninsula formed by a sharp bend in the Gavleån River, covered mainly by sparse pine forest. It contains a café with an outdoor stage, a dance floor, a playground, a mini golf course and pedal boat rental. Its boundaries are Gamla kyrkogården in the west, Västra vägen in the north and, to the east, a line between Strömdalens kraftverk and Brändströmsplan.

The park was created in 1865 on former church property and named after a famous garden in Paris to mirror its style and purpose. This transformation turned the site into a public recreation area for the growing city.

The name comes from the Bois de Boulogne in Paris, laid out a decade before the park was founded in 1865. In summer, Gävle residents once arrived by tram to the terminus in Stadsträdgården. Up to five cafés operated at once, and the first Swedish bandy championship final was played here in 1907.

The area is easy to reach and set up for different activities, from playgrounds for children to options for adults like boat rental and mini golf. The best time to visit is during warmer months when all facilities are open and the space is most active.

A newly built pier along the riverbank provides water access and activities designed for people with mobility limitations and wheelchair users. This addition shows a focus on including all visitors in outdoor experiences.
