It was a wonderful hike through a beautiful old beech forest. This is part of the largest contiguous mixed deciduous forest in Sweden. It's practically the equivalent of Germany's Hainich National Park. How beautiful! Heard lots of nuthatches, but unfortunately, didn't see any dippers. The Naturum information center is lovingly designed. You get tips on the hiking trails, lots of information about the beech trees and their inhabitants, and there are free restrooms and a café. A visit is definitely worth it.
