Stångehuvud Nature Reserve

Enjoy nature in Stångehuvud Nature Reserve. The area has had nature reserve status since 1982 and is where the Bohus granite has its southernmost landward outlet. The granite, which was formed some 920 million years ago, became much sought after by quarrying companies in the second half of the 19th century. For almost 50 years, granite was quarried in large parts of the Stångehuvud area. Today we can walk over the untouched granite, created entirely by nature's own forces.
