Beskrivelse
The Timmerhöjden reserve contains a natural forest with very high biological values. Species that would not survive in a normal production forest thrive here.
The reserve was established to preserve biodiversity and biologically valuable natural environments. Therefore, the forest will be allowed to develop freely and the natural water balance in the soil will not be damaged.
Animals and plants
The area consists of old spruce forest with elements of deciduous trees. The forest contains trees of different ages and also dying trees. Dead wood is found in various sizes and stages of decomposition. This creates important habitats for many rare mosses, lichens and fungi. Examples of species are the twig lichen Alectoria sarmentosa, the old spruce lichen Lecanactis abietina, the coral lead lichen Parmeliella triptophylla, the lung lichen Lobaria pulmonaria, the large aspen tick Phellinus populicola and the wood tick Phellinus viticola. Several of the species found in the area depend on high and even humidity. If the forest were to thin, the wind could blow through, making the air drier.
