Swedish county road 136

This facility is a paved two lane structure that runs along the west coast of the island from Ottenby in the south to Nabbelund in the north.

Much of the island of Öland has been designated a world heritage site by UNESCO in the form of the Stora Alvaret nature reserve.

This reserve is home to a vast number of rare and endangered species due to the presence of an enormous limestone barren, which is the largest such formation in Europe.

However, the most interesting geological feature associated with Route 136 is a low ridge scarcely exceeding four meters in height which is particularly noticeable in the western perimeter of Öland.

The ridge historically was the center of human development since it was one of the few places that supported farming, structure foundations and burial sites.
