Abstract: These are lecture notes for the course "MATS4120 Geometry of geodesics" given at the University of Jyväskylä in Spring 2020. Basic differential geometry or Riemannian geometry is useful background but is not strictly necessary. Exercise problems are included, and problems marked important should be solved as you read to ensure that you are able to follow.
