Just a few steps north of the parking lot are the very well-preserved foundations of an old earth cellar. The arched entrance surround is still clearly visible.

Beautifully situated bench at the northern bay not far from the parking lot.

A really nice little beach with benches, a fire pit, and an information board. Unfortunately, my spot was completely taken over by canoeists, as the official rest area for canoeists in the north was occupied by German booze-hungry tourists. Annoying.

Although you are walking on a paved road here, the birch forest around you is all the more beautiful.

Here is probably the only well-preserved and visible relic from the old settlement of Nydala on the island of Marsholm.

Information board about the old settlement called Nydala on the island of Marsholm. Except for a relatively well-preserved foundation further south, relatively little of the old settlement remains, apart from old stone walls in the forest.

The old but beautifully preserved estate on Marsholm. The two information boards tell the history of the estate and the island. Highly recommended.
