Description
Here you will find an old spruce forest growing on soil containing lime. The forest on Mellgårdsbackarna has grown there for a long time. You can see this through the dead trees that stand or lie here and there. The forest consists mostly of spruces of different ages, some older pines and aspens. On the historical map from 1810, when the large-scale land consolidation was established, the area is shown as wooded land. Since then, no large-scale forestry measures have been carried out, and the forest has been allowed to develop relatively freely. According to the landowners, the forest was grazed until the 1970s.
