Description

In Staffanstorps nature reserve, well-walked paths show the way through herb-rich spruce forest, sheep-grazed dry slopes, past marshes and interesting lakes. The dead ice- landscape in the reserve was formed during the last ice age. The hilly terrain and the calcareous moraine create conditions for the area's different vegetation types. Like the nearby Sjöbo-Knäppan reserve, Staffanstorp's documented history dates back to the Middle Ages. Large parts of the reserve were used for grazing and mowing. Today's old house foundations, stone fences and cairns help us to understand what this ancient landscape looked like.

At the visitor barn in Staffanstorp nature reserve, there is an accessible toilet and firesite.

The nature reserve is managed by Motala municipality.
