    Old Lahn arms with little moving water.

      In the approximately 16 hectare FFH area you can find the habitat types “softwood meadows” and “near-natural still waters”. The Lahn loops created by straightening the Lahn at the end of the 1920s mainly have dense bank vegetation, lined with floodplain forests. During the migration period, tufted ducks arrive. Penduline tits, goosanders, little grebes and kingfishers have their breeding grounds here. The shy water rail feels comfortable in the reeds. In order to preserve these habitats, the floodplain forests are largely left to their own devices and are therefore rich in dead wood. There is a ban on the use of fertilizers and pesticides in green areas.
