Trail description
The Trollskogen nature reserve is located at the north-eastern tip of Öland and is one of Öland's most popular and well-visited excursion destinations. The trails in Trollskogen take you around in a varied environment of old and pastoral coniferous forest. In Trollskofgen there are cultural and historical sights such as Iron Age graves, redoubts, Öland's oldest oak tree, the old railway track and the wreck of Swiks.
Nature lives up to its name. Moon-century-old oaks, gnarled wind-pinned pines, old rough wide-crowned oaks and woods covered with ivy create a magical feeling. The Troll Forest leads out to the sea's pebble beach, flowery dry meadows and the grazed meadows of Grankulleviken.
The trails start and end at Naturum Trollskogen which is located next to the parking lot of the reserve. Signs and colour markers guide you around the reserve. At Naturum Trollskogen there are many exciting things for children to discover.
The Troll Forest Trail is the longest trail in the Troll Forest. It is almost five kilometres long and marked in red. The trail is mostly a nature trail that takes you around the entire cape and passes most of the sights. You will see Trolleken, the Baltic Sea's clapper beach, the Swiks wreck, Iron Age graves, the Hjerteskeppet, the wall, the windswept pines and Grankullaviken's beach meadows. Along the trail there are benches and tables for those who want to sit down, listen to and enjoy the environment and perhaps pick up their lunch.

Faktat
To think off!
Cycling and horse riding are allowed on the forest road that runs through the middle of the reserve. Do not cycle on the hiking trails.
Stones and parts of the Swik wreck should remain on the site.
Cows graze in the Troll Forest. These help to keep the forest open and the meadows grazed. This is crucial for wading birds and ducks that like grazed land near the water. The cows are peaceful but should be treated with respect like any animal.
Dogs must be kept on a lead.
