Beskrivning

The wetlands of Skottorps Våtmarksområde were created in the 1990s on land that until the turn of the last century consisted of large floodplains along the river Stensån. The newly created wetlands are not in direct connection with the river, except at high water when the river overflows its banks. The area is an oasis in an otherwise rather intensively cultivated agricultural landscape.

Primarily wetland birds are attracted to the area. The ponds were the first place in Halland where gråhakedopping nested regularly. Almost every year småfläckig sumphöna is reported, a species that is extremely scarce in Halland. Other birds you can encounter are skedstork, tofsvipa and waders during migration. In the scrublands and in the fields around the wetlands, there are often kärrsångare, gräshoppsångare, vaktel and sometimes kornknarr.

Detaljer

Tillgänglighet

The area is located just under a kilometer east of the village of Skottorp. If you come by car, it is best to park in one of the parking lots near the castle and then explore the area on foot. From the E6/E20, take the exit at the crossroads towards Skottorp/Skummeslövsstrand. From there you drive through the community of Skottorp, cross the old national road and continue towards Skottorp castle. There are a couple of parking spaces adjacent to the castle and farm buildings. Note: please do not disturb the activities on the farm and respect those who live in the area.
