Valle – a kame landscape unique in the world
Valle härad on the west side of Billingen is a gently rolling kame landscape, with many lakes. It was formed when the inland ice receded about a thousand years ago. Later, it became colder for a few centuries, so the ice remained for a long time in the proximity of present-day Skara and Skövde. Large rivers in the ice and broken-off icebergs, along with gravel and sand, formed the so-called kame landscape.
It seems that nowhere in the world is there such a well-formed kame landscape, on open agricultural land and nutrient-rich lime soils, as in the Valle region west of Billingen between Varnhem och Lerdala. A maze of gravel, sand and moraine formations provide the backdrop to hollows which often contain a small lake or a marsh.
When the inland ice disappeared, Stone-Age people settled on the dry grass hills, caught fish in the numerous lakes and hunted in the bountiful deciduous forests. Through the influence of humans, the land was transformed over the centuries into a small-scale agricultural landscape with hay fields, grazing pastures and meadows, interspersed with lakes and hardwood forests.
The area is of national interest and is considered unique in the world. It includes six easily-accessible nature reserves.
