From here, you have a beautiful view of Skövde. A morning tour at sunrise is highly recommended.

At the edge of Billingens slopes, near the Skanska quarry, you can see unique rock formations, also known as diabase columns.

The waterfall starts slowly, with a series of small rapids, before it plunges over the large drop. There is a small rest area located here.

This nature reserve consists of natural terraces made of limestone, slate, and sandstone. Several abandoned quarries are located in this now forested area. The main attraction is, of course, the Silver Waterfall.

Small parking for 5 or 6 cars. A bit in the middle of nowhere. A bit of walk to the waterfall, but along the river with smaller waterfalls. I still think it's easier and better to park at the big parking.

Nice waterfall, easy to reach from the big parking lot, and very close.
