Småland is one of the most moose-dense regions in Sweden, and around 30,000 moose live in our deep forests. Maybe that’s why we have so many moose parks. Or perhaps it’s because we have so many visitors from Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands, where there are no wild moose. Either way, moose parks are both a safe and fun way to get close to the shy king of the forest. During autumn, the parks have fewer opening days, so make sure to check opening hours and plan your visit.
