Beskrivelse

Here you can enjoy many special species and also get a mile-wide view from Torrknölen's 580 meter high mountain top.
From the access road that runs around the north side of the mountain, you can see lichen-covered pines in a large blocky forest. Higher up on the slopes, the pine forest changes into an old spruce forest with lots of aspen, willow and birch in places. Traces of older fires can be found in the reserve.

The reserve was established to preserve and manage a large natural forest area. The area is part of the EU's network of protected areas, Natura 2000.

Animals and plants

The deciduous coniferous forest with its many dead trees favors rare and demanding natural forest species such as lichens and mosses, fungi, insects and birds. Among the species that thrive here are the rose thistle, broktagel, lung lichen and three-toed woodpecker.

Facilities

There is an information board. The reserve is otherwise not adapted for visitors.

The area is difficult to access in parts.
