Beschrijving
The Ledskär area has four bird towers, one of which is located at the edge of a very shallow bay which is super popular amongst waterfowl like Pijlstaart, Smient and Kolgans as well as waders like Tureluur, Zwarte Ruiter, Wulp and Bontbekplevier. Ledskär is also a good place to see Reuzenstern and Zeearend. This bird tower is far away from the waters edge so bring a spotting scope.
From the harbour one can have a closer look over the water, but it is difficult to see over the bay, a new birdtower is planned to be built here. West of the parking area there is a marsh and a forest full of birds.
During spring and autumn migration local rarities like Strandleeuwerik, Paarse Strandloper, Breedbekstrandloper and Nonnetje can regularly been seen around Ledskär.
A new birding tower was build at the pier during 2021.

Toegang
Ledskär lies approximately 90 km north of Uppsala and is best reached by following the E4 north towards Tierp. From Tierp drive north towards Skärplinge and road 76. Shortly after you have arrived on road 76 towards Skärplinge there is a sign and a gravel road that goes left towards Ledskär (can be easily missed!), after one kilometer there is a parking area on your right.
