Currently
The nature reserve has areas affected by spruce bark beetle. Many spruce trees have died and may fall over time, so please be cautious and avoid visiting during windy weather.
The beetles only attack living trees and do not remain in dead wood. Dead trees are left in place to support biodiversity, as they provide important habitats for wildlife, mosses, and lichens.
Description
Welcome to the Slätmossen-Borgberget nature reserve, which you can get to from the Sörmlandsleden trail. In Borgberget, you can follow a hiking trail up to the ruins of an ancient hillfort and enjoy the view.
The reserve encompasses a patchwork of coniferous forests and wetlands. The area is relatively unaffected by forestry, and the botanically inclined can find several endangered species of lichens here.
