Description
Take a walk through a peaceful, untouched forest without any trails. The forests of the Vågsjön nature reserve are mainly coniferous, with a little aspen and oak. There's a rich variety of lichens, mosses and fungi here, including the beautiful lichen, tree lungwort, as well as many rare fungi that grow on dead aspens.
There's a path from the parking lot by Erkenvägen road that takes you to the reserve, with an informational sign nearby. This path goes through hilly and difficult terrain. Once inside the reserve, you get to find your own way. There are no trails or other facilities.
