Description

Långängen-Elfvik has lots of nature around, with lakes and a wetland nearby. The landscape varies from forest to meadow, with lots of connecting trails and diverse birds species. The pin of the location is the spot where there is a bird observation tower that overlooks the wetland. There are many other spots from which one can enjoy birdwatching in comfort, including a few benches in prime location, also overlooking the wetland. In summer there is a family of Ötücü kuğu that is well known to the birdwatchers of the area.
