The hilly landscape of Knösö offers a varied natural landscape with pastureland, rocky ground and shady forests as well as relics from times gone by in the form of stone graves.
On the southern part of the island, a granite ridge up to 20 meters high rises in a north-south direction, extending into the sea between the islands of Verkö and Säljö. Oak and beech are the dominant tree species, but pine, rowan and juniper also grow. There are beautiful meadows here with oaks, hazel bushes, junipers and individual beeches. In the old pasture landscape there are stately oaks with wide-spreading crowns. The grazing cattle keep the landscape partially open, which is very beneficial for the old giant trees and the pasture flora.
On the southern part of the island there are two prehistoric sites in the form of round stone settings and two so-called "sitting hens", i.e. dolmens in which a larger covering block rests on several smaller stones. These dolmens mark old graves.
The nature reserve rules can be found at the link below. For example, you must keep your dog on a leash, you can only camp or moor your boat in designated places for a maximum of 48 hours and only light fires in designated fire pits.
