Gömmaren Nature Reserve

Gömmaren Nature Reserve spans 765 hectares of varied landscapes including forests, lakes, and narrow valleys filled with agricultural lands and bogs.

The establishment of the reserve in 1998 followed centuries of human activity, including historic homesteads, charcoal production sites, and windmills dating to the 17th century.

Multiple schools near the reserve incorporate the natural environment into their educational programs, providing students with hands-on learning experiences about local ecosystems.

Visitors can explore the reserve through numerous paths, engage in swimming at designated beaches, fish with permits, and practice ice skating during winter months.

The Fullersta kvarn area contains rare moss species such as Buxbaumia viridis and Plagiothecium latebricola, leading to its designation as a Natura 2000 protected site.
