Huskeberget, Naturreservat
- Nature reserve
- County: Värmlands län
Actions
Description
The name of the reserve comes from the Huuskola croft, which was occupied as early as the 17th century. The croft is gone, but stories of its former owners and use remain, including that of the great bear hunter Huske-Per.
The Huskeberget nature reserve was established to preserve a coherent natural forest area with humid pine-dominated natural forest.
Animals and plants
Many species found in the area are dependent on high and even humidity. Large parts of the Huskeberget slope have a lush ground layer of white moss and several parts can be described as swamp forest.
Norwegian beak lichen is quite abundant in the area. It thrives on the coarser branches of old spruces. Värmland is the species' main distribution area in Sweden, which is why the county has a special responsibility to preserve areas where Norwegian beak lichen occurs.
