Description
At the Dammstakärret pond, you may feel as though you've entered a deep wilderness. The desolate cries of the black-throated loon echo off the water in the spring, and during a visit in summer, you may see the unusual bright, yellow-green flowers of the bog orchid. Many different plants thrive in these wetlands, including a wide variety of sphagnum mosses.
Due to its impressive biodiversity, Dammstakärret is a designated Natura 2000 area, which means that it is part of the Natura 2000 network that protects Europe's most valuable and threatened species and habitats.
