Description
At Grinduga you can walk back in time. Meadows, fields and a lane are the remains of a medieval landscape. Nowadays it is also an inviting picnic landscape. The area is 23 hectares in size and is located just east of Grinduga village, about 9 kilometers east-southeast of Gävle.
Grinduga Nature Reserve consists of a well-preserved cultural landscape, some parts of which were already farmed in the Middle Ages. Many ancient structures have been preserved, such as hayfields, small patches of arable land, cairns, fencerows and grazed forest. It is easy for the visitor to get a picture of how the land was used in the past.
The reserve is home to a large number of vascular plants that depend on the area being kept open through grazing or haymaking. There is also a great wealth of different butterfly species in the area. Parts of the area are included in the Natura 2000 network.
Popular excursion destination
The reserve has two picnic areas and a nature trail. Parts of the area have been restored, and the maintained areas are managed annually through grazing and haymaking. The fact that the area is now a nature reserve means that it is protected from exploitation, and that the continued management is facilitated.
