About Älgriket

An authentic piece of the Småland landscape

People come here not only to see moose — they come to slow down.

Älgriket is a small, personally run moose park in Yttre Källehult. Among open meadows and beech forest, moose, red deer, fallow deer and llamas live in an environment of their own.

It is not an amusement park. It is a piece of Småland where you can walk at your own pace, come close to the animals and breathe fresh forest air — whether you come with family, as a couple or on your own.

The animals in the enclosure

Four species, one shared home in the Småland landscape.

Moose in the enclosure

The moose

The forest’s largest resident and the park’s main attraction. Watch them graze at an unhurried pace, often from close by.

Red deer in the enclosure

Red deer

Tall and elegant, with an impressive crown of antlers in late summer and autumn.

Fallow deer close up

Fallow deer

Smaller and more curious than their relatives — often the first to approach the edge of the enclosure.

Llamas in the enclosure

Llamas

The park’s most sociable personalities, with a talent for always attracting attention.

Meeting the animals

Paths and viewing spots are designed so you can come close without disturbing them.

The surrounding nature

The beech forest, open fields and Lake Mien are as much a part of the visit as the animals themselves.

The light falling through the leaves, the scent of grass and water in view — this is the setting that gives Älgriket its character.

  • Beech forest
  • Open fields
  • Lake Mien

Close for real

The wooden enclosures are designed so you can come close to the animals without turning the visit into a performance.

A quiet afternoon

Many people stay longer than planned — a picnic outdoors, a couple of hours in the open air, a pause from everyday life.
