Hestehave Wood (Horse Garden Wood) on southern Djursland in Denmark, Northern Europe, at the entrance to The Baltic Sea between Denmark and Sweden, is a recreational wood with a temperate coastal climate, owned by the Danish state. Hestehave is located close to the town Rønde, 21 miles north of the second largest city in Denmark, Aarhus.[1]

Hiking Trail no. 91 is part of the international North Sea Trail, passing through Hestehave Wood.

Hestehave Wood is part of Mols Bjerge National Park, with a southern and eastern coastline bordering the ruined Kalø Castle and the Slotsvig- and Følle Bugt- coves at the southern and eastern perimeter.

Historically the wood has been part of the Kalø Estate, where the Danish Environmental Research Institute has its headquarters today. The researchers here often use Hestehave Wood for studies, such as of the 300 roe deer in the area.[1]
