Sandemar Nature Reserve

The reserve extends across 390 hectares of coastal meadows, shallow waters, and fens along the Stockholm archipelago near Sandemar Castle.

Established in 1997, this protected area preserves the natural landscape that has been part of a manorial estate for centuries.

The reserve maintains traditional Swedish coastal meadow environments, representing essential ecological features of the Stockholm County landscape.

A bird watching tower stands near the water's edge, providing observation points for visitors who arrive by taking the commuter train to Handen.

The eastern fen contains specific plant species including early marsh orchid, fen orchid, marsh helleborine, and common butterwort.
