Description
For those who find it too crowded in Stenshuvud National Park Link to another website. the Västra Stenshuvud reserve may offer an alternative. In the reserve, which borders the national park, you will find a mostly untouched beech forest with low visitor pressure.
The area has been covered with beech forest since at least the 18th century. However, some parts of the beech forest are more open, and cairns and other ancient remains indicate that the land has been used by humans.
Västra Stenshuvud has a significant proportion of coarse trees and there is plenty of dead wood - which benefits biodiversity. The field layer is predominantly sparse and dominated by grove-like vegetation with species such as wood anemone, yellow anemone and toothwort.
Rörum's northern river flows through the southern part of the reserve. Around the river you will find wetter land with floodplain forest.
