Stenshuvud National Park entices visitors with lush hornbeam forests, magical alder swamps, dry heaths, flowering meadows, sandy beaches, and panoramic views stretching across Hanöbukten.
Naturum Stenshuvud is the central visitor centre where you can explore an exhibition about the national park, meet knowledgeable staff, join guided tours, unwind with a book in the reading corner, and enjoy a cup of coffee during the summer.
Plan your visit to the park by discovering what unfolds across the changing seasons.
Spring: In mid-April, wood anemones carpet the forest floor in white. Pasqueflowers adorn the dry meadows alongside cheerful birdsong. The nightingale sings from mid-May until Midsummer, and wild orchids paint the wet meadows in vibrant purple.
Summer: The peak season for visitors. Dry meadows are in full bloom, and cattle graze freely throughout large parts of the national park.
Autumn: The forest glows with vibrant autumn colours. Squirrels gather hazelnuts, and apples ripen in the historic orchards.
Winter: The forest reveals its striking structure, with ancient oaks and beeches standing out among the slender hornbeams. Animal tracks appear clearly in the snow – hare, fox, and badger. An occasional elk may even cross your path.
