기슬레이브‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪16‬개의 천연기념물

There's a parking area for approximately 5-7 vehicles at the information board, which applies to both the Marieholmsskogen and Mässeberg nature reserves. Signposts indicate the distances to the various hiking destinations.

The parking lot is all the more spacious for this small and not particularly well-maintained reserve. It can easily accommodate around 20 vehicles. The parking lot is large enough to accommodate even larger campers and buses. There's a barbecue hut, several seating areas, a toilet block, and an information board, although it lacks a reserve map including hiking routes.

Smålands Stenar is a burial field that dates back to the end of the early Iron Age. Five stone rings can be identified as burial fields. The burial fields were only discovered at the beginning of the 19th century. An information board explains the background in Swedish and with a short English translation.

Actually just a few stones, but with an information board the hills become an exciting story. What's particularly nice for me these days are the many mosses that grow on the stones.

The stone slab lies on the slope down to Gårdstadsbucht by Lake Bolmen. The scratched surface is heavily weathered. This may be partly because before the lake was submerged in the 19th century, the slab was only half a meter above the waterline and was therefore slightly exposed to the water, weather permitting. In addition to various lines, some runes were discovered on the plate, but they don't make any sense. Håringe was already part of a main farm on the north side of the island of Bolmsö in Viking times. The inscription on the plate was probably only made in the 17th century with reference to the "glorious" past.

But that's not a highlight!

Old burial ground

At the beginning and middle of August there are plenty of ripe blueberries.
