Description

The area around Lake Trummen offers lakeside walks close to town, and hidden inlets that will give you that wilderness feeling. To the north, there is Lake Trummen, with open waters that border on built-up and green areas. To the south, there is the Skirviken inlet hidden beyond reeds, osiers and quagmires. Here, where both watercourses meet, a bicycle bridge leads from Teleborg castle to the Brändö peninsula. The castle also marks the beginning of a trail that leads to the Skirviken bird tower. Immense spruce line the trail. Cloudberries and cranberries grow along the marsh-like shores of the lake, In May and June, hare’s-tail cottongrass moss lend a spectacular snow-white gleam to this area. Goldcrest, crested tit and willow tit whisper to each other in the language of the great woods. The lake often hosts mute swans, great crested grebes, common goldeneyes and goosanders.

Facts

New dietary recommendation due to PFAS in fish:

Analysis results show increased concentration of PFOS in fish from lake Trummen, Växjösjön and Södra and Norra Bergundasjön and the levels exceed the EU's health-based guideline limits. This means that those who eat a lot of fish from the lakes risk consuming too much of this and similar substances, the so-called PFAS, in the long run. Ingesting a lot of PFAS for a long time can be harmful to your health. According to Växjö municipality's dietary recommendation, one should therefore not eat fish from these lakes more than one (1) to three (3) times per year. The advice applies to everyone, both children and adults, including pregnant and breastfeeding women. This applies until further notice.

Directions

Trummen is located just north of the Linnaeus University campus in the Teleborg district.
