Hej Birgitta, kul att du gillar Turpas! Är det en hänvisningsskylt i området som du menar i kommentaren ovan? Hoppas att det inte misstämde allt för mycket och att det ställde till besvär. När våra förvaltare tittar till området får de kika på det. Med vänlig hälsning Anna Berhan, Länsstyrelsen.

lättvandrat!
