Description
The 2014 forest fire was a violent and intense fire. All the forest in the entire reserve burned very badly. Some of the trees have fallen down, some are left as black-burnt pillars. The fire was so intense that much of the ground cover also burned up, leaving rocks and stones completely free of soil and moss. With each passing year, more and more greenery is returning.
There are no outdoor facilities in the nature reserve, but if you have a sturdy pair of boots, you can walk among the blackened trees. If you climb the steep and rocky Hobergsklacken at the parking lot, you get a dramatic view of the fire area. However, remember to be careful when visiting the area. Trees and branches fall more easily in the fire-affected forest than in a normal forest - especially if it is windy.
