Description

Few areas in Sweden are able to offer a more varied natural landscape than Vattenriket in Kristianstad.
Join wildlife photographer Patrik Olofsson on a journey through a diverse landscape where inaccessible wilderness borders on urban waterways where otters swim in the city s canals and White-tailed Eagles daily circle the rooftops.
Visit wet meadows, swamp forests and reed beds. Travel along meandering, willow-lined waterways and through pastures and beech forest ravines.

Experience Vattenriket, one of Sweden s most diverse and unique habitats where you will find many of our endangered flora and fauna. Vattenriket is a book about Sweden s first UNESCO biosphere reserve, established in 2005.
Kristianstad was founded in the 17th century as a defence installation in the middle of this wetland. The Helge å river and its fluctuating water levels are still a major feature of the city.

The book is published in Swedish, English and German.
