Flostranda is a nature reserve in the Norwegian municipality (municipality) of Stryn on the north side of Lake Strynevatn . The nature reserve includes the largest deciduous forest in Northern Europe. The special climatic conditions have created this forest, which is hardly to be expected in these northern latitudes.

Warmth-loving tree species such as linden , elm and hazelnut are common here. More than 340 species of higher plants are represented in the nature reserve .
