Mickelsörarna Nature Trail on Kummelskär Island is about 2 km long. The thematic trail starts from the yard of the nature information station. At first, the trail runs 200 metres along a back-and-forth trail, after which the circle trail section begins. It is possible to take a detour to the seashore halfway through the circle trail to admire the scenery. You will have to walk a total of 500 extra metres if you choose to take the detour. Then, you will return to the circle trail section. Once you have travelled the entire circle trail, you will return to the trail that takes you back to the starting point.
Along this nature trail, visitors are able to see the geology, vegetation and animals of the land uplift shores, foundations of old fishing huts and boat docks from the 16th century. Please note that the trail can only be accessed by water.
There is a lean-to shelter, a campfire site and a dry toilet as well as a rental sauna in the harbour at the starting point. You can climb the observation tower in the summer, when the nature information hut is open. A summer café operates in connection with the nature information station.
