Vindsjöbergen

Vindsjöbergen is a hilly and scenic natural area located about five kilometres north of Åkersberga, easily reached via marked trails from the Domarudden outdoor recreation area. Within the reserve, you can follow Domarudden’s fitness trails or explore the area freely.

The area features old pine forest on rocky heights, spruce forest in lower areas, and the small lake Vindsjön in the north.

The forest has high conservation value and is home to many protected species, especially fungi associated with old-growth forest and dead wood. Keep an eye out for pine bracket, Junghuhnia collabens, Skeletocutis stellae, Phellopilus nigrolimitatus and rode bracket.

In addition, you may find the fragrant hydnellum mushroom, lichens such as Megallaria grossa, blonde horsehair lichen and Chaenotheca gracillima. Also, the rare Anastrophyllum hellerianum moss and the creeping lady’s tresses orchid have been found in this nature reserve.
