A small nature reserve with a variety of different bird species. The meadows are also used as pasture for Heck cattle.
Until a few years ago, the 47-hectare area was still used for agriculture. Since then, this special sanctuary has become home to a variety of different animal and plant species. You have a perfect observation experience from the viewing platform.

Especially during the bird migration season, the lapwing meadow acts like a magnet for water birds, waders and songbirds, which like to take a break here. Until a few years ago it was still intensively used farmland, then old raft ditches were opened and the former Ruhr floodplain area was watered again. During the breeding season, their namesake, the lapwing, are particularly noticeable: after a long absence they have returned to their old habitat. In 2014 storks even nested here for the first time.
