Description

Thanks to the long absence of logging, the forest has developed into almost a primeval forest. Skitåsen is an old "mast forest" area. Due to the need for timber for the navy in the 17th and 18th centuries, in 1668 the Crown prohibited the felling of pines that could be suitable for ship masts. There were a number of designated areas with mast trees on the commons. The ban on the commons remained in force until 1932.
