Stig Hjälstaviken runt

There is a trail around Hjälstaviken that is about 8 km long. The standard of the path varies in different parts of the reserve.

From the entrance at Hårby there is a gravel road to the bird tower. Here it is possible to get around with a pram or wheelchair. Between the bird tower and Parnassen, the path goes through a cow pasture on the beach meadows. It can be wet and muddy here. There are footbridges on the wettest parts.

From Parnassen, the path continues over paths to the hiding place at Jungfrulunden. Along the path there are some meeting places. Between the hiding place and Jungfrulunden itself, the path is wider and can be used by wheelchairs or prams.

At the toilet in Jungfrulunden, the path splits into two parts. One goes up to Kvarnberget. The path up is steep and uneven. There is a log halfway up as a resting place. The other path goes below Kvarnberget. It is a bit uneven with protruding roots here and there. The two paths meet again at the eastern hill.

From the eastern hill, the path continues along the meadow. A bridge and some footbridges take you towards Stora backen. Between Stora backen and the parking lot in Skönsberg, the path goes on over hills. The last stage from Skönsberg back to Hårby you walk over open beach meadows. Here the path can be wet and muddy.
