Aspen

The native aspen trees in this region display white bark and rounded leaves that flutter in response to wind movements throughout the forest.

Swedish forests in this area have contained aspen populations since the last ice age, contributing to the ecological development of the region.

Local Swedish communities incorporate aspen wood into traditional sauna construction due to its low flammability and natural resistance to moisture.

The aspen stands in this location spread through underground root systems, creating new shoots that emerge up to 40 meters from the parent tree.

These aspens engage in photosynthesis through their bark during winter months, maintaining growth even after seasonal leaf loss.
