Nöbbelövs Mosse, nature reserve

Nöbbelövs Mosse is one of Lund’s nature areas close to the city. The Nature Reserve attracts both those who want to be fascinated by nature and those who want to take a walk or use one of the barbeque areas. The area consists of meadows and pastures, ponds, and wetlands, and thanks to the varied landscape it is has a rich animal and plant life.

The Nature Reserve is a well-known bird site and has long been a favourite with birdwatchers. One of the typical birds for the area is the red-necked grebe – you can see it diving for food in the ponds and hear its distinctive call in the spring. Other bird species you may be lucky enough to see and hear include the marsh warbler, reed bunting, and water rail. Waders such as ruff, wood sandpiper, and snipe rest at the mire during the spring and autumn migrations to rest and feed up for their migration.

If you take the car, park in the car park which runs along the village road in Nöbbelöv in the southern part of the Reserve. From the car park it is about 500 metres walk down to the first pond where there is a picnic area, barbeque area, and a shelter.

From Lund you can reach the mire by both bicycle and public transport. The nearest bus stops are Nöbbelövs kyrkoväg and Fornborgen, about 400 metres south or south-east of the mire respectively.

You can easily reach the bog by both bike and public transport. The nearest bus stops are Nöbbelövs kyrkoväg and Fornborgen about 400 meters south and southeast of the bog - on Skånetrafiken's website and app you can search for a suitable route.
