Trail details

  • Length 2.7 km

Actions

Currently

The reserve has scattered infestations of spruce bark beetle. This means that there are a lot of dead standing spruces in the forest and along the paths.

The trees can fall suddenly and without warning. Keep an eye out and avoid visiting the reserve when it is windy!

Description

This 2.4 km trail leads you through the largest single collection of lady's-slipper orchids found in the Stockholm region. They flower by the thousands here in June and the best place to enjoy them is in the airy open forests south of Lake Lövfjärden.

Even though the forests here are not particularly old, mosses and lichens cover the trees—creating an enchanting atmosphere.

The path can be difficult to follow at times, especially if you visit the area during the fall and winter, but small signposts in the form of arrows will help you find your way. The path is sometimes rocky and steep.
