Halsön, or Halsö, is an island in the Bothnian Sea, in the Kvarken Archipelago of Finland. It is in the Korsnäs municipality. The island is marshy and wooded. It is used in part for forestry, and has some vacation cabins. The west of the island is a protected nature reserve, with an unusual environment of flads and gloe lakes that provide refuges for fish and birds. ==Location== Korsnäs is the most western mainland municipality in Finland. It has a long, rocky coastline along the Gulf of Bothnia. The three largest islands are Halsön, Bredskäret and Södra Björkön, all used as important recreation areas for urban dwellers. Halsön lies near the mainland to the south of Molpehällorna. The archipelago, including Halson Island and the surrounding shallow sea, is characterized by an undulating moraine terrain with till surfaces rich in boulders. This is an effect of glaciation, where the granitic rocks were cracked by the ice and then transported by glaciers. Some very large boulders could have been carried to new locations by flowing glaciers or by floating icebergs. WPD Finland Oy has stated plans to build a wind farm in public waters of the Korsnäs municipality. The wind farm would be about from a conservation area on Halsön. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Halsön (Korsnäs)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
