Description

The northern shore of Östa is a long sandy beach surrounded by dry land with old gnarled pines. Some of the pines have small hatching holes for the rare and beautiful beetle, the eight-spotted beetle. The beetle is completely dependent on old pines that stand freely so that the sun can warm up the trunks and roots.

The beach is 200 m from the nearest parking lot, follow the yellow and red marked path through the forest. There is also a shelter, picnic table and barbecue area on the beach.

Östa beaches is one of Uppsala County's favorite places in nature. A nature spot is an area with high natural and outdoor values that is accessible to visitors.

En av de bästa badplatserna i Uppland. Långgrunt och bra sandstrand. Nära till gratis parkering. På eftermiddagen kan tallarna skymma solen, men på eftermiddagarna ligger solen på perfekt.
