Description
Occasionally overgrown old spruce forest on a western slope.
The nature reserve contains an old spruce forest that has not been affected by modern forestry. The soil is moist and there are several small bogs. Here and there are deciduous trees such as aspen, birch and willow. In order to preserve the deciduous trees, some of the spruces will be ring-barked so that they die.
The reserve was established to preserve the high natural values of the forest. The area will now be allowed to develop freely. The natural water balance of the soil will not be damaged.
Animals and plants
The nature reserve contains many good habitats for rare mosses, lichens and fungi. Examples of habitats are trees of different ages and sizes. Other examples include slow-growing trees and dead trunks in various stages of decay. Some of the species that thrive here are the violet-gray thorn lichen Bryoria nadvornikiana, the shadow blue lichen Hypogymnia vittata and the lung lichen Lobaria pulmonaria.
