Protecting Majroskogen: A New Nature Reserve

Stockholm City Council plans to establish Majroskogen in southern Stockholm as a nature reserve to protect its biodiversity, including coniferous forests and wetlands, and preserve it for outdoor recreation. The approximately 58.6-hectare area will have a management plan with rules for activities like fires, dog leashes, and events. Some parties are critical of excluding parts of the forest from the reserve, fearing these areas could be developed for housing.
