Description
As early as the 14th century, people in the area began to quarry lime from the rock here in Jönsbacken. From the parking lot there is a path through the lush forest, which leads you to the traces of the limestone quarries. Once you reach the limestone quarries, the path ends, but you can choose to walk on and discover the rest of the nature reserve.
The surrounding soil is moist and rich in lime, which means that some plants thrive particularly well. In the spring, you can see the thistle bloom and a sea of bluebells spread out on the ground. Several different orchids also grow here, such as coralroot, meadowsweet and the rare purple orchid.
