The Reinzelbachtal nature reserve, with its meager damp and wet meadows, offers a habitat for many rare plant species. Numerous endangered butterfly species such as the Marbled White occur here.

One of the many ways to explore the town and castle of Reifferscheid as well as the surrounding area – including the scenic Reinzelbach valley – on foot is the Eifel loop “In the footsteps of the robber barons”.
