Risen, nature reserve

In Risen Nature Reserve you will find many different types of habitats and it is precisely this variety, which has led to the high biodiversity in the area. The north-eastern part, closest to the car park at the Medborgahuset (town hall) in Genarp, consists of open pastures. Here you can experience a splendid flowering of, for example, the pasqueflower in spring. In addition to the species that are common in pastures, you can find rarities such as the plant eyebright and even the large blue butterfly has been found here. The western parts consist of varied woodland where you can walk under the canopy of the trees and listen to the sounds of different woodpeckers. Risen also has wetlands where you can find several species of orchids.

If you take your car to Risen, there are a few different parking options:

Medborgarhuset in Genarp has a larger car park - from here you can enter the Reserve from the pastures to the north.

Sandvägen - here there is a smaller car park from which you can enter the wooded area of Risen in the north-west.

In the southern part, between Risen and Häckeberga-Skoggård, there is also a car park. From here you can enter the southern wooded areas of the Reserve.

If you want to take a longer walk, you can park at Ekevallen's sports ground - from here you can follow the Skåneleden Trail to Risen.
