Beschrijving
Angarnsjöängen (Lake Angarn Meadow) is a nature reserve of 565 hectares. A wetland with a varying water level depending on the weather. The water rises dramatically each spring as the snow melts and becomes very low by late summer and autumn, creating a good resting place for wading birds. A wetlands restoration project carried out in 1992 markedly increased both the numbers and the variety of birds visiting the site and nesting there. Among the nesting bird species are Bruine Kiekendief, Kievit, Tureluur and Gele Kwikstaart Angarn is one of Stockholm's finest bird lakes. The lake is surrounded by an open farmland and it is easy to hike over grazed meadows, forested heights and pastures. Other nice birds you can see here are Porseleinhoen, Kraanvogel, IJsgors (september and october), Kuifduiker, Roerdomp, Paapje and Tapuit. A circular route of 6,5 km runs around the wetland and there is a birdwatch tower in the area.
