Vättlefjälls naturreservat

The Vättlefjäll reserve spans over forests, lakes, and wetlands, featuring numerous trails through varied terrains at elevations up to 150 meters above sea level.

During the 1700s, the now forested area contained vast heathlands that locals regularly burned to create grazing grounds for livestock.

The reserve contains medieval traces of farming settlements, including boundary stones, field patterns, garden plots, and old road foundations.

Visitors can access the reserve by taking tram 4 or 9 to Angered centrum, followed by bus 75 to Kryddnejlikegatan and a seven-minute walk.

The reserve's lakes undergo regular limestone treatment to prevent acidification, supporting diverse aquatic ecosystems and maintaining water quality for fishing activities.
