The “Bärenbach” nature reserve near Olbernhau is one of the near-natural beech forest remnants that were placed under protection in the 1960s. The forest has some special features of the local vegetation and is home to some botanical treasures such as the green wood hyacinth, daphne and club moss. The old stands with 180-year-old spruces, 160-year-old beeches (some specimens are even older) and 140-year-old oaks are particularly valuable for wildlife. The NSG is part of the NATURA 2000 area “Beech forests and moor forest near Neuhausen and Olbernhau”.
