Description

East of Valdshult in the northern part of the municipality is Svinhultsåsen - the municipality's smallest nature reserve. The area, which is just under 2 hectares in size, consists of a rocky outcrop with a surrounding spruce forest. The reserve was established in 1970 to protect nesting barn owls. Mountain owls no longer nest on Svinhultsåsen - but ravens do. However, it is hoped that the barn owl will return.

The woodland consists of tall spruce, large pine trees, bilberry, silver birch and several species of sedge. Some birch and rowan also grow on the slopes. Mosses dominate on the ground. Unusual woodland fungi and the rare orchid spiderwort occur in the area.
