Forsakar Nature Reserve, Nature reserve with double waterfall in Degeberga, Sweden

The Forsakar Nature Reserve spans 2.5 hectares and contains a 750-meter ravine reaching depths of 40 meters through gneiss rock formations.

Carl Linnaeus measured the waterfall's height during his 1749 visit, marking the first documented observation of the blue ground beetle in this location.

Local folklore connects the ravine formation to mythical giants, while tales of water nymphs and forest spirits persist in regional storytelling.

The reserve features two main paths: an upper trail with viewing platforms and a lower route leading directly to the waterfall base.

The site contains two distinct waterfalls, with the upper fall dropping 7.4 meters and the lower fall cascading 10.6 meters through dense beech forest.
