Brantestad Naturrunda

The Brantestad nature trail is 9.9 km long, but is divided into two loops, so you can choose to walk all or just part of it. It follows roads and paths in areas of natural interest between Brantestad, Stjärnevik, Ryggåsen and Lake Yxern. The route offers a rich cultural landscape with burial grounds from the Bronze Age, stone walls and cairns are evidence of people's toil and desire to improve their lives through the ages.

On your walk you will see lots of plants, some rare, and some really mighty trees, including a hollow oak that is probably about 1000 years old. At several places along the route there are tables and seats, an outdoor gym at Långvikstorp and a nice barbecue area by Lake Yxern, where you can enjoy your lunch.

We wish you a nice and pleasant walk in our old cultural village.
