Drive to Billebjer to see the spring bloom.
Just us in the parking lot. Going up to the view of the former quarry.
Here there are some blooming pasquefloers,
but also a lot of overblooming ones
Continue around the mountain to get below the cliff.
In the forest, a lot of wood anemones.
On the hill below the cliff there are a number of pasquefloeras
and anemones. Going up below the cliff, white with flowering sedge.
The birch trees are turning green. Many seed stands from pasqueflower.
It will be nice with coffee in the hollow below the cliff.
Going up the slope of the cliff for views and more of pasqueflowers.
Walk back on the path that goes around the mountain.
Lots of blueberry rice and flowers.

Overcast day. There are probably not many people at Billebjer.
In the parking lot, a man is working on a car.
We were going to have lunch on the rocks above the quarry,
but the view of the water is blocked by trees these days.
Walks through the forest up on Billebjer, where there is a nice view.
Not so nice is a fireplace on the cliff, with a broken bottle, and filthy.
We go further up to the best view.
Bring the trangian to make coffee.
Have prepared wraps with tuna.
Beautiful views, pleasant temperature, almost windless.
A company of dogs passes by. A couple walks below the cliffs.
We go down to the southern parking lot,
from there to the pasture below the cliff.
A couple is sitting on the cliff.
Full of apples on the apple trees.
To the pasture are new gates.
Walk around the cliff, go back to the quarry.
A bunch of technologists have something for themselves at the barbecue area.
A woman is bathing at the bathing area next to it.
Do not feel for bathing today.
In the parking lot, the man is still messing with the car.

A few years ago I tried to walk a path up Billebjer steep side. Dared not the
last bit, was in pain and it was slippery on the stones. Try again today, a
little tired as then but else it is good. Up to the cliff there is no
problem. Then simple climbing, heave myself up and I am up. That was easy. The
view is as usual fine. My companion thin I should have climbed at the steep
rocks. Want to get rid of me? Continues to walk around the water-filled
quarry. Weather is not inviting a bath. Blue tit and great tit fly around.
January 13, 2013:
Poor sleep. I give up a visit with a friend at Söderslätt
and sleep a little longer. More alert and it will be a short ride by car to
Billebjer. Rarely I am there in the winter. The parking lot is half full when
I arrive. It is snowing lightly, the rocks at the water-filled quarry is
powdered in white. The ice has not yet had time to fold over the water
surface. Continuing up the hill to the south. Others are on the way down. A
couple are standing and talking at the highest point, children playing with
sticks. I walk carefully to the edge. The view disappears gradually in the
light snow. The rocks are slippery, lightly powdered with snow.
I walk down the eastern slope, through an angle and then west in the hollow
below the cliffs. At one point, one can with some easy climbing to get up the
mountain. Trying, it's slippery and I'm a little stiff from the cold, the grip
of the shoes are not the best. Dare me not all the way up, go down again when
I am almost is up.
To the south lies crops and waiting for spring. Continuing on the path through
the woods. Leaving it to go down to a small pond, it is usually hidden by the
greenery in the summer. From the pond through the bushes to the quarry, where
a family barbecue sausage. Walk around the quarry on a knitted path. Now the
trees are leafless and do not obscure the visibility. It is a short walk, I am
back at the cliff where I started. It's only my car left at the parking
lot. The setting sun colors the horizon.
12 June 2010: Park at
Skryllegården parking lot. Start by following the dog
track. Cattles graze in the pastures. Follow the path in to a forest, a
dog trail
with different training stations. Joggers use it too, but not the
stations. Then follow
the gravel road to Billebjer. Going into the pasture below the high
cliff. A large
company has picnic in the green and red, catchfly is in full bloom. Goes
below the rock to the end of the pasture to a passageway, from where I
take the
path up to the cliff. From here is a magnificent view. Below the cliff
gives the
company of, they look small from here. I take a break with the view.
Then take the trail
west, past a stone that says that 1921 was the area donated to the
The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation. Coming out on the major
path to the quarry. Around the
water-filled former quarry is it lush, with steep cliff edges. At the
quarry is a
simple bathing place. Takes the difficult path along the water's edge,
there is a better
path further away. Pass a beautiful fern. Arrive to the rock in the eastern part. Here is a car park
that
most visitors use, here is also a toilet. The reserve also includes open
pastures. Going back to Skrylle along Rögle ponds, where some try
their fishing
luck. The forest path is lined with flowering Silverweed and Red
Campion. Pass
a bridge over a creek in which water the trees are reflected. The
circular
walk of
eight kilometers is completed.
