The trail leads through a striking birch forest, where fallen trees have deliberately been left in place to support biodiversity. Keep an eye and ear out for woodpeckers and other woodland birds.

Where the forest opens up and sunlight reaches the ground, the vegetation changes noticeably. Young deciduous trees and firs grow around the clearing, adding variety to the landscape around Brårudsmossen.

The track up there is very icy and slippery during winter. Bring walking sticks. 🙂
