    The Niederlemp Juniper Heath Nature Reserve, located northwest and northeast of Niederlemp in Hesse, encompasses two historic juniper heaths created by traditional sheep grazing. These habitats, typical of the Lempt Valley, are characterized by dryness and warmth and are home to rare plant and animal species, including the woodlark, grasshoppers, and butterflies. The area is part of the Natura 2000 network and is maintained through regular management measures, such as sheep grazing and manual removal of emerging bushes to prevent scrub encroachment.
