Established in 1958, the nature reserve covers 20 hectares. The Jahna River and the Keppritzbach stream give the forest and its floodplains an African-like appearance. There is a great deal of natural windthrow along the Jahna. However, dead wood is a natural component of floodplain forests, and the entire area is part of the EU's Natura 2000 ecological network. Besides many animal species, the endangered spring snowflake (Leucojum vernum) thrives here.
