Description
Over the millennia, the flow of Österängsån has created a beautiful and treacherous ravine through the landscape. In places it is 250 meters wide and 20 meters deep. The Gärdsgruvan nature reserve is a smaller "neighbor" to the Enåns nature reserve, which is further east, and has similar natural values.
The bottom of the ravine has been used for haymaking long ago by the people of Nedre Gärdsjö village. The name of the reserve is taken from one such mowing site. Mowing has long since ceased and the ravine floor is now a peculiar environment with alternating "semi-natural" meadows mixed with birch and spruce of varying ages.
