Hamra National Park preserves old-growth forest, wetlands and naturally flowing water. Visitors can follow paths through old-growth forest and bogs. The ground shifts between wooded stretches, open mires and low rises across undulating bedrock. Still water is also part of the park. Nearly half of the park is bog, including a large undisturbed mire appreciated by birds and hikers.
About 90 per cent of the trees are pines, and many are more than 300 years old. Some trees in the park are over 400 years old. The oldest part is one of the few untouched forests in central Sweden. Old and dead trees support many of the park’s animals and plants.
Established in 1909, Hamra National Park offers visitors a way to explore forest and mire country on foot. Its paths pass through old-growth forest and bogland. The terrain includes small rises and open mires alongside wooded stretches. The park has both still water and naturally running water.
