We stayed nearby this area for a couple of days and really felt like walking that day. We parked on Drottninggatan close to the harbourfront.

From there we entered the Reserve from the North (near the Marina). As soon as you go around the corner from the Marina you'll be quite surprised. You wouldn't expect such an impressive Reserve so close to a town. It's really just around the corner but feels like another world.

The views are amazing and the rocks and rock formations impressive. We brought our dog with (an English Bulldog). She did amazingly well. Just at the very beginning on the Northern Entrance a few steps leading up were too big and steep, so we carried her quick.

Later on there's an easy trail leading back to town. Or you can follow a tougher route (sometimes no route at all) leading towards the famous Fyrhuset. We had fun exploring the area as did our dog. Nice views and nature and it was just fun climbing around here. Sometimes taking a break - sitting on some rocks - to take in the amazing landscape.

If you only need to park up to 4 hours, then there's a free parking lot just south of the Gullmarsgymnasiet.

If you are around this area - even an hour or two away - be sure not to miss out on this terrific Nature Reserve.
