Långåsberget, Naturreservat
- Nature reserve
- County: Värmlands län
Actions
Description
The forest has remained virtually untouched since the last forest fire in 1868.
The reserve consists largely of old fire-affected coniferous forest with centuries-old stands of pine. Throughout the area there is plenty of dead wood, both standing and lying dry trees.
The reserve was established to preserve the old coniferous forest, favor the old pines and sun-exposed, dead pine wood and create suitable habitats for wood-living beetles.
Animals and plants
Långåsberget is home to a number of rare species, such as the scull lichen, lung lichen, violet-grey thorn lichen, barn owl and grey woodpecker.
