Stile

As far att Google translate tells me, this is a stile, a "Stätta", as it's called in Swedish. Please let me know if there is a better word in English. 

In my area they are everywhere, there is no real divergence between land-owners with grazing animals and protected areas like nature reserves and us, who wants to use the same areas for walking and excursions. The ancient Swedish "All-mens-right" to freely use our natural recourses for recreation and outdoor life, as long as we take care and don't disturb wildlife or come too close to private property. This puts a lot of responsibility on each one of us to be respectful while we learn how to behave in our common nature. For instance we know that stone fences are fragile and it's not allowed to destroy them while trying to cross them. In the nature reseve close to where I live, there are sheep-farmers using the reserve as grazing ground and to protect both their fences and the stone walls, a department within the government put up these stiles for us to cross the fences. Since this is a nature reserve, we are recommended to keep to the paths, if we do, we can easily cross over them. 

In many places in the reserve, Ash-trees has fallen or half fallen over the path. Would you go under the trunk or to the left of it? Most people seem to estimate the risk by judging what holds it up, and go under it. When you do, there is a tingle in the body that makes it worth the risk.
