Allarps bjär, Nature reserve with basalt formations in Skåne, Sweden

The northern section of Allarps bjär features a basalt knoll rising above the landscape, with hexagonal columns of solidified magma visible along its slopes.

The basalt hills in this area formed during volcanic activity in the Jurassic and early Cretaceous periods, creating the geological formations visible today.

The Skåneleden trail passes through the reserve, connecting visitors to Karrastenen, a stone that locals use to test physical strength through lifting.

Visitors can reach the reserve via a gravel road from Hallaröd, with a designated parking area available at the base of the hill.

The nature reserve contains 30 recorded rare species, including the barbastelle bat and eleven types of protected lichens in its broadleaf forest.
