Gripsholms hjorthage, Nature reserve in Strängnäs Municipality, Sweden.

The reserve contains a population of 100 fallow deer grazing among centuries-old oak trees across 48.6 hectares of protected land.

King Charles XV established the area as a combined promenade park and game preserve in the 1860s, with the deer enclosure added several decades later.

The reserve holds archaeological remnants including burial mounds, grave fields, and an iron casting emblem from earlier settlements in the region.

The paths throughout the reserve are graveled and accessible for wheelchairs and strollers, with benches placed at regular intervals for resting.

The ancient oak trees within the reserve provide habitats for rare species, including the leather beetle found in only a few locations in Sweden.
