Skrylle

Skrylle is a nature reserve covering 575 hectares with open moorlands, water-filled quarries, and a mixture of planted and broadleaf forests. The area combines different landscape types and ecological zones within its boundaries.

The area was once covered in deciduous forests until the Middle Ages, when it was converted into pastureland for cattle grazing. This change shaped the landscape into the mix of open and forested areas we see today.

The visitor center at Naturum Skrylle presents the local flora, fauna, and geology through displays and educational activities that help visitors understand how people have shaped this landscape. It shows how the land has been used by communities over time.

The reserve has nine marked hiking trails of varying lengths along with running and cycling routes for different fitness levels. About 20 barbecue areas with shelters are spread throughout the site for dining and picnicking options.

The site features a natural play area with climbing trees and obstacle courses that particularly appeals to children exploring the outdoors. This informal space provides adventure opportunities without relying on built structures or specialized equipment.
