Ramsholmen Nature Reserve
Ramsholmen
A broadleaf forest nature reserve northwest of Mariehamn, carpeted with wild garlic and wildflowers in spring. It is a typical example of Åland’s meadow-forest landscape.
Ramsholmen is a peninsula nature reserve in Jomala, centered on the broadleaf meadow forests that are characteristic of Åland. In spring the ground blooms with wild garlic, wood anemones and orchids, and a loop trail of about 2 km winds through the forest, where visitors can listen to birdsong and look out over the bay. Once the flowering season ends in summer, the scenery is more ordinary. Admission is free. It is about 5 km from Mariehamn, roughly 20 minutes by bicycle. Please stay on the trails within the reserve and do not pick plants.
