Description

The Täby prästgård nature reserve encompasses a landscape rich in cultural history; people have lived here and worked this land since the Bronze Age. In the reserve, you can enjoy open vistas and explore exciting archaeological finds from the past.

Thousands of years of cultivation, grazing and haymaking have shaped the area's biodiversity. Here, you can find rare wildflowers, such as eyebright and a pink variety of pasqueflower. In the summer, sheep, cows and horses graze to keep the pastures open. If you are lucky, you may see a flying kestrel on the hunt or a northern wheatear on one of the many cairns in the area. Follow the nature trail that describes the local flora and fauna, as well as how life here was lived in the ancient past.
