Description

Here you find everything from wetlands, waterlogged forests and tarns in the lower parts of the nature reserve - to dry, boulderstrewn land higher up on the slopes of Juovvavare mountain. In the old pine forests there are trees with fire scars in the bark that show they have survived up to 3 different forest fires. Several streams flow through the outer areas of the nature reserve, including Hattmyrbäcken in the western part of the reserve and Björkängesbäcken, which flows in the southeast.
