Taxås Nature Reserve consists of beautiful hardwood forest and impressive farmland. Taxås Mountain is named after the Danish commander Taxe, who is said to have been killed by his own men. Everyone knows that trolls have lived among the cliffs of Taxås since time immemorial.

There are two trails in the reserve. The northern trail passes a stone coffin near the barn at the present-day Taxås farm and continues up towards Taxås Klint. At the top of the cliff, you have a beautiful view of Lake Möckeln. The southern trail takes you out into the pasture landscape.
