Beskrivelse
The nature reserve protects a hundred-year-old mixed coniferous forest in wild and boulder-rich terrain. The forest has been untouched for generations and is a haven for plants and animals that are sensitive to disturbance.
Coniferous forest
The terrain in the area is hilly with wooded heights and depressions with swamp forest. Conifers dominate, but there are also plenty of coarse aspen and birch as well as other deciduous trees. In the southwest there is a thicket of hazel. The forest in the reserve has not been farmed for a long time and is therefore valuable for a number of disturbance-sensitive animals, plants and fungi that do not survive in managed forests.
Dead trees give new life
The forest is full of stumps, dry trees and fallen tree trunks. The decaying wood is vital for a number of beetles, fungi, mosses and lichens. For example, unusual species such as green shield moss and wood ticks grow on decaying, moss-covered tree trunks. The insect-rich wood is also valuable for woodpeckers and other birds that feed on small insects.
Blocks from the ice age
At the end of the Ice Age, the area was covered by so-called dead ice that had broken off from the great ice sheet. Dead ice does not move and therefore cannot transport material like active ice sheets. Therefore, large rocks and boulders remained in the area when the dead ice melted. The blocky terrain is the reason why the forest is untouched and the land has not been cultivated to the same extent as in the surrounding area.
