Away from the cycle path there is this viewpoint from which, with a bit of luck, you can watch birds.

The fågeltornet (bird tower) at övre Föret is one of Uppsala County's hidden gems in nature. A hidden gem is an area with high natural and outdoor values that is accessible to visitors.

Gravel road for cyclist and pedestrians through Hammarskog, very nice alternative for the asfalt road around Hammarskog. The road runs up and down through open fields and forest, alonside there are plenty of places to rest.

Viewpoint over the fields with cows and in the background the water. The viewpoint is located near the parking of Vik and is thus easy accessible.
