Description

Degerberget-Hötjärnshällan Nature Reserve offers calcareous coniferous forests with rare plants, fungi, and birds.

Visitors can enjoy views of the Piteå archipelago and discover ancient shorelines created by land uplift after the Ice Age. The reserve is home to the mezereon, the orchid, and the rare three-toed woodpecker. The fungi, which grow in undisturbed forests, are vital to the ecosystem.

Geology enthusiasts can explore the Piteå conglomerate and archaeological remains such as dwelling pits. A unique place for nature lovers and history enthusiasts!
