    Rustic nature in abundance. Nature trails criss-crossed by roots and stones, therefore a slippery affair in places when it rains.

      Norra Kvill is one of the four national parks in Småland.
      It consists of authentic Småland primeval forest.
      The forest hasn't been cleared for 150 years, and some of the pines are 350 years old. Fallen trees, huge moss-covered boulders, and magical forest lakes
      await you here. A hike to the highest mountain
      in the national park will be rewarded with a brilliant view.


      Untouched forests are very rare in southern Sweden.

      It's a good thing that the first part of the national park was established in 1927.

      At that time, it covered 27 hectares.

      The area was later expanded and now covers 114 hectares.

      Here, nature is allowed to develop freely into a primeval forest.
      The forest is 80 percent pine, some of which are quite large –
      with a circumference of 2.5 m and a height of 35 m.


      Norra Kvill National Park is located close to the road between Vimmerby and Södra Vi,
      7 km south of Ydrefors. A marked exit leads to the parking lot with information boards, a restroom, tables, and benches.


      A hiking trail runs around the two lakes in the national park.

      Lake Stora Idgölen is also called the Magic Lake because of its water lilies
      and water clover. The highest point is Idhöjden, which rises 45 m
      above the lake surface and offers a magnificent view.


      The entire Småland Highlands are gently hilly.

      At 230 m above sea level, Norra Kvill National Park stands as a mountain in this landscape. Particularly fascinating are the moss-covered boulders,
      which in some places form entire boulder fields.

        Very beautiful national park with the possibility to hike from the trail parking lot two rounds of different length (2.3 km and 3.1 km).
