Here too, as in many other places, there is a sweet, small lock. It is an impressive spectacle when slightly larger boats pass through here.

Wooden Dock at Forsbo Nature Reserve

Highlight • Structure

A perfectly located swimming jetty. However, it is private here. But note: As long as the owner is not using it, you may use the jetty. Should the owner unexpectedly show up, you may have to leave (keyword: Allemansrätt).
