Including template that is located outside of the main folder

In my main template folder I have 2 folders explorer and includes 

template 
  explorer
     body.html
  includes
     header.html

I want to include in my body.html file header.html from includes folder

tried those options :

{% include "../includes/header.html" with active_tab='dashboard' %}
{% include "/includes/header.html" with active_tab='dashboard' %}

in both options - can not find the path

What is the correct way of doing it?

Django template paths are always absolute, from the root of the template folder (or whatever folder is included in the TEMPLATE dirs setting.) So it's just {% include 'includes/header.html' %}.
