Bodberget Björsjö

Decision year: 2005

Size: 2 km²

Municipality: Bräcke

Administrator: County Administrative Board of Jämtland

Protection area: Nature reserve and Natura 2000 area

The reserve is located just over a mile northeast of Pilgrimstad. Half a mile east of Pilgrimstad, on the southern shore of Sundsjön, you turn off towards Fjällsta. In Fjällsta keep right towards Björsjö. After Björsjön, take the first turnoff to the right, and you will soon see the reserve's information sign.

Welcome to Bodberget Björsjö. Keep in mind that within the reserve it is not allowed to:

• make fires
• capture, disturb or harm mammals, birds, frogs and reptiles, as well as damage their nests and spawning grounds or collect eggs
• climbing nest trees or deliberately staying closer than 100 meters to a bird of prey's nest, roost or burrow
• disturbing the ground, boulders or vegetation, dry trees or other dead wood
• picking and collecting natural products (e.g. wood fungi, lichens and mosses) with the exception of berries and edible mushrooms
• collecting invertebrates, such as beetles and land molluscs
• driving motorized vehicles off-road throughout the area
• marking trails, organizing orienteering checks or holding competitions
• constructing snowmobile trails.

Paragraph 2 does not prevent the practice of hunting. Point 7 does not prevent the off-road transportation of felled moose. This presupposes that vehicles with low ground pressure are used and that a suitable route is chosen for transport.

Other rules apply if you want to conduct any kind of activity in the area, see the relevant reserve decision for full regulations. There may also be other laws to take into account, such as the Reindeer Husbandry Act.
