Description

Krokberg can be likened to "the reserve of a hundred tarns," where a diversity of natural types creates a mosaic of forest, mire, and lake. This distinctive dead ice landscape has been shaped by the melting of the ice sheet, resulting in hills, ridges, and depressions that now host valuable habitats for various species.

Here, one can find a rich flora and fauna, including rare fungi and lichens, thriving in the protected natural forest with its natural structure and variation.

The Krokberg forests also provide excellent hunting grounds and habitats for birds such as the northern goshawk. The landscape also bears traces of human history, with bike paths and archaeological sites that testify to a time when bicycles were the primary means of transport between villages.
