Balsberget, Nature reserve and mountain in Kristianstad Municipality, Sweden
The forest-covered bedrock elevation rises nearly one hundred meters, providing expansive views over Råbelövssjön lake and the Kristianstad plain.
Carl von Linné documented his visit to Balsberget during his Scanian journey in 1749, recording observations about the abundant fossil deposits.
The protected area became an official nature reserve on January 12, 2006, highlighting the commitment to preserve local biodiversity and natural heritage.
Visitors can access three marked hiking trails ranging from 2.2 to 4.5 kilometers, with facilities including parking for 35 vehicles and barbecue areas.
The Balsbergsgrottan cave system extends 290 meters through the mountain slope, serving as a winter sanctuary for multiple bat species.
