Hilleshögs dalar, Nature reserve near Glumslöv, Sweden
Hilleshögs dalar is a nature reserve spanning about 170 hectares with rolling hills and deep valleys along the Öresund coast between Landskrona and Glumslöv in southern Sweden. The terrain features distinctive slopes and formations that shape how the land appears as you walk through it.
The reserve took shape during the last ice age when melting glaciers carved through the land, creating the distinct valleys and slopes seen today. This glacial activity formed the geological patterns that make the area distinctive.
The land is shaped by traditional grazing where cattle move freely across the slopes, keeping the plant life balanced naturally. This way of managing the land has defined how the place looks for generations.
The reserve is accessible from the main road between Landskrona and Glumslöv, with parking areas at several entry points along this route. Wear sturdy shoes since the hilly terrain with its slopes is made for walking and exploring.
The reserve contains landforms that appear nowhere else in Sweden except at Vens backafall, featuring unusual geological patterns. These rare formations make it a special place for those interested in geology.
