15 Entrance point from Mölle to Kullaberg existing sign b Busstop 1 Connection between hiking trails goes onto road and busstop. The connection between the hiking trails is not marked in any way. Furthermore it's not obvious to people passing by in car/buss etc. that this path is part of the Kullaberg Hiking trail. 2 Asphalt surface divided by white stripes, metal light poles and rocks 3 This entrance point is used by cars, cooperate busses, public busses, hikers, bikers and bicycles. Ideally all of these should have a clear sense of entering and exiting the park. This could be enhanced by marking the threshold between park and Mölle more clearly. 4 It is not obvious what the little building in the middle of the road is used for? If used for information foldes etc. for the Kullaberg park this should be made clear. It's situated right next to the road and could be unpleasent to enter/exit due to traffic. 1 b 2 b Potential: Width of the road is wide enough to make space for all of these functions to co-exist in a functional way and clearly marking the entrance point to the Kullaberg Nature reserve.

Parking marked by white stripes and dirt hills. Car zone. Gravel surface. s t 3 2a b Driving / Walking This border seperates the carparking area and the zone for walking. There's a potential to tell people stories about Kullaberg while they're at their feet, walking towards the lighthouse. Picnic area. The picninc area for has the potential to tell the story about how Kullaberg is unique, to families, kids, hikers, bikers, bustravellers etc. who only come to use the grill area. 2b Potential: At this particular point in Kullaberg, visitors get out of the vehicles and experience Kullaberg first hand. Opposed to the tip of Kullaberg, by the lightshouse, this area is sheltered and less windy. Since families, kids, hikers, bikers and bustravellers spend time here with their picnic there is also a different potential for telling stories about the landscape, history and geology at Kullaberg.
