The Water Kingdom and Pulken

In late March and early April, the Vattenriket - a nature area with many lakes, rivers and wetlands - sees large numbers of cranes resting for a few days before continuing their northward migration.

At the "Pulken", a kind of bird tower in the area, you can see the cranes foraging during the day and flying in large flocks at dusk to the overnight sites out in the Vattenriket. In recent years, 3,000-5,000 cranes have been seen at the same time.

There is a car park near "Pulken". Remember to bring good binoculars.

In the northern part of the area there is an outdoor museum, which describes the great botanical and ornithological values of the area. The Pulken Museum is also accessible for wheelchair users, who can reach the platform and enjoy the view and the bird life.
