Description

At the Dammstakärret pond, you may feel as though you've entered a deep wilderness. The desolate cries of the black-throated loon echo off the water in the spring, and during a visit in summer, you may see the unusual bright, yellow-green flowers of the bog orchid. Many different plants thrive in these wetlands, including a wide variety of sphagnum mosses.

Due to its impressive biodiversity, Dammstakärret is a designated Natura 2000 area, which means that it is part of the Natura 2000 network that protects Europe's most valuable and threatened species and habitats.

Fin promenad i bitvis ganska brant o kuperad skogsterräng. Bitvis går man på väg eller nära väg där trafiken hörs. Härligt att gå på mark med mycket barr. Tror denna är perfekt att gå en varm sommardag då du går mycket i skog med höga träd. Hörde storlom och såg en krokodiltall.
