Söderåsen National Park was formed in 2001 and covers 1,625 hectares. The nature is varied, featuring lush deciduous forests, impressive talus slopes with high cliffs, flowing streams and panoramic views. The long, deep fissure valley by Skäralid is especially frequented. It is a rift valley of immense scope with perpendicular cliffs that envelope the Skärån river running along the bottom. Other impressive sites are Odensjön lake in the Nackarpsdalen valley as well as the vantage points of Kopparhatten, Hjortsprånget and Lierna along the Skäralidsdalen valley. Naturum’s activities include information for visitors, exhibits and guided tours, various programme activities as well as development of maps, signs, brochures and fact sheets. Common species such as fallow deer and badgers are present, but polecats, ermines, wild boars and bats also are well represented among the park’s mammals.Birds that breed in the area include the stock dove, hawfinch, long-tailed tit, grey wagtail, lesser spotted woodpecker, honey buzzard and goshawk. An exciting current project is the establishment of new living quarters for eagles in the national park. Of the various groups of fauna, insects are the most multifaceted. Here you will find unique species such as the large black longhorn beetle, darkling beetle, tineid moth and Lamprotes c-aureum, a moth of the Noctuidae family. Many of the species are associated with dead wood.There are several beautiful spots and places that are worth a visit in Söderåsen nationalpark: 1) One of the most visited sights is the deep cut valley Skäralid. The valley ist a rift valley 90 m deep and several kilometers long with a small stream (Skärån) at the bottom.2) Odensjön in Nackarpsdalen in the south and the viewpoints Kopparhatten, Hjortspåret and Lierna at Skäralid are also worth a visit.
