Description

The old-growth forest in Skårtaryd can really stimulate your imagination. This nature reserve trail winds between thick stands of trees and large boulders. The wilderness feeling is definitely present and there are plenty of mushroom and berry areas. Many dead trees mean lots of insects, which, in turn, attracts woodpeckers. There are both black grouse and western capercaillie. During the summer, the Linnea (or twinflower) is in bloom along the fantastic forest roads of this reserve. See the link below for more information about the nature reserve. This nature reserve is administered by the County Administration of Kronoberg.
