Folhammar, Nature reserve in Gotland Municipality, Sweden.
The protected area features a 500-meter-long rauk formation containing limestone structures that reach heights of up to 6 meters along the coastline.
The Swedish government established Folhammar as an official nature reserve on December 17, 1974, to preserve its geological and ecological characteristics.
Scientists conduct geological research at Folhammar due to the abundance of fossils found within the reef limestone formations.
The County Administrative Board of Gotland manages the reserve, which visitors can reach through public transportation services connecting to Ljugarn.
The reserve contains stone beaches that transition into sandy shores both northward and southward, creating distinct coastal landscapes.
