Die Kvilleken
Sight / Landscape
Probably the thickest oak tree in Europe, but definitely the thickest and oldest oak tree in Sweden can be found near Norra Kvill National Park. Its age is estimated at almost 1000 years and the circumference of the trunk is an impressive 13 metres. Held together with iron rings in several places against wind breakage and old age, it still thrives every year. The natural monument is easily accessible. From a nearby parking lot for hikers it is only about 250 meters that you have to cover on foot.
03.12.2017: PoiBesuc 05/2017 | The parking lot near the oak was newly created and is suitable for overnight.. Toilet available.
