It is fantastically beautiful here and one of our highlights so far on our circular tour. The path through the forest and both above the cliffs and below is super beautiful

The Valekleven-Ombo Islands are a nature reserve in the municipality Karlsborg in the district Västra Götaland.

The area has been protected since 1996 and covers 586 hectares. The nature reserve is located north of Karlsborg on the northwestern shore of the Vättern on both sides of the previously protected nature reserve Granvik. A dozen larger islands and islets and more copper and inserts are included. Granite is the dominant type of rock with elements of greenstone and diabase.

Valekleven is a mountain region on the western shore of Lake Vättern. It is an 80 meter high rock face with steep sides in all directions.

The Ombo Islands include five mountainous islands with natural harbors in the form of bays and lagoons. The area between the Ombo Islands and the mainland is called Djäknesundet.

There is a parking in the nature reserve above the popular beach. The water in Djäknasundet and in the bay appears green. This is due to the greenstone that leads down into the lake. The stones in the bath are often used to jump from five meters or more into the clear water.

The area is part of the EU Network for Ecological Protected Areas Natura 2000.

A beautiful secluded bay with clear green water in the nature reserve Valekleven-Ombo-Islands. We were thrilled, how nice it is here and spontaneously stayed here for a long time and explored the area.
