Bøkeskogen

Bøkeskogen ("The Beech Tree Forest") stretches inwards along Farris Lake in Larvik. It is an archeological area which is home to between 83, 90, and 100 burial mounds. It contains Vestfold County's largest burial grounds from the Pre-Roman Iron Age. Besides being Vestfold's largest grave site, Bøkeskogen is considered one of Norway's most accessible remains from the Viking Age. It is the world's northernmost beech tree forest.

Bøkeskogen is 0.3 km2 (74 acres). It is home to miles of hiking trails. Bøkeskogen is home to one of Norway's largest burial mounds from the Iron Age. The highest point is known as “The Bellevue”, which offers panoramic views of the Farris Lake.

It was Norway's first public area, given in 1884 by manor house owner Treschow-Fritzøe to the residents of Larvik. The area was protected by the Norwegian Nature Diversity Act in 1980.
