Sjalen Says: Here it is, pride of place in the square. I quite like the way he studies a flower but you see it better in my intro picture.
Sjalen Says: Carl von Linné (Linneus in English) who categorised plants, was born in Råshult north of Älmhult. Today, the croft has been rebuilt after a fire but is standing almost in the same site, just a different angle. Outside, you will find a herb garden and beautiful meadows and...
Sjalen Says: At least that's how it seems at Taxås Klint. Dramatic cliffs you don't want to fall down and this marvellous view of Lake Möckeln and miles and miles of forest (especially after the 8 January 2005 Great storm which means you now have views northwards too!). Excellent to take...

Sjalen Says: Drive to Diö, 10 km north of Älmhult and turn towards Höö where signposted. The small nature reserve consists of several small islands in Lake Möckeln but the biggest is Höö itself with living farm life. Nice and peaceful with grazing cattle and oldfashioned haymaking. Bring...
