Description

The Vattmoraberget nature reserve consists of forest that has been left untouched for a long time, which has benefited the biodiversity in the area. The old coniferous forests have plenty of dead wood where rare lichens, mosses and fungi grow.

There is a large swamp between Vattmoraberget mountain and Lake Alkärret. The rare lichen, tree lungwort, can be found on the aspens in the western part of the reserve. Keep an eye out for three-toed woodpeckers in the holes in the trees.

There are several well-worn paths within the reserve.
