Skuleskogen National Park

Skuleskogen National Park is a forest and coastal area in Västernorrland that combines woodland with rocky Baltic shorelines. The landscape features granite outcrops, valleys carved by ancient forces, and dense forest layers accessible through marked walking routes.

The park preserves Bronze Age burial sites positioned where the ancient shoreline once stood thousands of years ago. These monuments show how communities used this coastal region long before modern times.

The forest represents a significant part of the UNESCO World Heritage High Coast area, demonstrating the geological effects of post-glacial land uplift.

The park has three entrance points and offers about 30 kilometers of marked trails for exploring forests and coastlines. The southern entrance stays open year-round, allowing visits in all seasons.

Slåttdalsskrevan Canyon is a deep ravine carved into granite through long erosion and stands as an overlooked feature within the park. This formation reveals geological processes that shaped the landscape over immense time.
