The Grande Fagne de Bihain preserves an impressive diversity of habitats and species: a total of 15 different habitat types and around 20 animal species have been recorded there, including birds, fish, invertebrates, and mammals. The area is an outstanding example of the rare raised bog and fen landscapes of Western Europe, whose formation depends on specific climatic and geological conditions. These unique ecosystems play a central role in biodiversity, climate protection – because peat stores large amounts of CO₂ – and the natural water cycle.
