    Tips

    January 6, 2020

    Wood warbler, middle spotted woodpecker, Daubenton's bat – a variety of native plants and animals once again feel at home in the Rülauer Holz Foundation's land. This approximately 280-hectare section of the eastern Sachsenwald forest, designated a Natura 2000 site, has been part of the foundation's land since 2008. Since then, development workers from the Schleswig-Holstein Nature Conservation Foundation have been working here:

    Rülauer Holz has largely been taken out of forestry use, and the natural water balance has been restored. Forest depressions were rewetted and ditches filled. Initial successes are already visible.

    For example, the crane has returned to the area and bred there in 2016.

    The recreated moist forest depressions are also very popular with moor frogs. The rewetting of the Rülauer Holz has significantly increased the moor frog population, as these amphibians thrive in the moist alder swamp forests with their fen-like character.
