Currently

The County Administrative Board advises visitors not to enter the nature reserve. Dead spruces can fall suddenly and without warning. Due to the risk of accidents, the path is closed until further notice and will not be maintained.

This reserve has suffered extensive infestation by the spruce bark beetle. As a result, many spruce trees have died and will eventually fall. The bark beetles attack living spruces and then leave the trees. So the dead trees do not contain any spruce bark beetles. However, dead trees are important for many other animals, mosses and lichens that live in the forest. Dead trees are therefore left in the reserve for the sake of biodiversity.

Description

On Borgberget mountain, there are ruins of an ancient hillfort from the late Iron Age.
