Näsudden

The Näsudden peninsula extends along the southern coast of Gotland, featuring natural habitats that support diverse wildlife populations and grey seal colonies.

During the 1970s, Swedish authorities selected Näsudden as the first location for large-scale wind power testing, leading to the construction of experimental turbines.

The peninsula forms a part of Näs socken, with the traditional Näs church positioned at its northern section marking the local parish boundaries.

Visitors can access multiple observation points throughout the peninsula to view both the operational wind farm and the protected natural environments.

By 2010, Näsudden had developed into Sweden's most concentrated wind power area, hosting approximately 100 wind turbines across its territory.
