Skåne  >  Sweden

Located at a landfill in the farther end of Malmö harbour is a site that late autumn and winter can be rewarding with some special birds.

Description

The area of Norra Hamnen in it self is not charming at all, a steppe like muddy big open space with some dry reeds. But it offers a wintering area for some interesting birds such as snežni strnad , laponski ostroglež , puklež and močvirska uharica and is a reliable site for uhati škrjanec. Outside the harbour in the sea auks and general seabirds can be seen.

There isn't any real route to walk but the small hill gives a quite good view over the area. Watch the map in street view and it will be more obvious how the area looks and how to walk.
