Skrylle, Nature reserve in Romeleåsen, Sweden.

Skrylle is a nature reserve on the northern spur of Romeleåsen, reaching 123 metres at Boks backe. Its bedrock of gneiss, granite and Cambrian quartzite sandstone has been cut by several quarries, active and abandoned. Gravel ridges Knivsåsen and Borelundsåsen rise in the north-west, and a gravel path lined with dry leaves runs between tall trees.

Until the 17th century, oak and beech forest dominated Skrylle; the woodland then shrank as grazing land expanded. Spruce was planted over the last century, but old broadleaf stands remain. After the December 1999 storm felled large spruce areas, it was decided that only deciduous trees would be planted. Södra Sandby bought the forest estate and built Skryllegården in 1972–74; the whole area became a nature reserve in 1993.

Skrylle's name comes from Skrylleskogen, the woodland between Dalby, Södra Sandby and Torna Hällestad. Naturum Skrylle, run by Lund Municipality, explains the area's cultural history, geology, plants, birds and other animals. Nearby Gryteskog is known for vresbok, a special gnarled form of beech that visitors can look for.

Three of the trails are lit, and a 1.2 km loop is suitable for wheelchairs. The 15 km Skryllerundan starts at Skryllegården, and Skåneleden (Nord–Sydleden) crosses the reserve. Marked bridle paths run through the woods, and Naturum Skrylle, run by Lund municipality, explains the area's geology and wildlife.

Skrylle is the northernmost spur of the Romeleåsen ridge, rising to 123 metres at Boks backe. Its bedrock of gneiss, granite and Cambrian quartzite sandstone has been cut by several quarries, some still working and some abandoned. Two gravel ridges, Knivsåsen and Borelundsåsen, rise in the north-western part of the reserve.
