June 5, 2026, Store damm

The Store damm („Great Pond“) is a body of water in the north of Skåne, which despite its name appears as a completely normal, sprawling forest lake. It is part of a historical system of man-made ponds that once served for fish farming and water regulation. Today, a varied circular trail winds through the surrounding mixed forests, past old avenues and wide fields.

A distinctive boulder in the middle of the beech forest on the shore of Store Damm and a silent testament that Sweden has more to offer than flat land. The deep crack splitting the rock was formed by frost weathering after the last ice age and makes this place one of the most unusual natural monuments in the region.

The viewing point itself is located in a bird sanctuary and may therefore not be entered between April 1 and July 15.

This stretch of the shore of Lake Finjasjön (Sjön means lake in Swedish) is also known as the Gold Coast. The shore here is sandy and adorned with several old, sometimes very mighty trees. There are also several picnic tables that invite you to stop at this idyllic spot.

This picnic table is a great place to stop for a longer rest on a hike. Since there are no trees obscuring the view, the view is very beautiful.

From 1804 until the 1920s, a water-powered mill stood here. Today, only ruins remain. An information board provides more information about the site.
