Rotsidan

Vast sheets of dolerite bedrock, smoothed by waves, extend into the sea. It is one of the High Coast’s most distinctive coastal landscapes.

Rotsidan is a nature reserve where large expanses of reddish-brown dolerite bedrock, polished smooth by waves and glaciers, stretch all the way into the sea. Low pine trees grow in the rock crevices. In summer, you can sunbathe on the rocks, have a picnic or go swimming in the sea, and the scenery is especially beautiful at sunset. It is about a 5-minute walk from the car park, and you can continue along the coastal trail to Barsta. Entry is free, but the rock edges are slippery, so take care when bringing children.
