Hiking

Since 2006, the BN local group Hersbrucker Land has leased the ponds in Fuchsau, which were previously used for intensive fish farming. After they were designated as a protected landscape element, extensive fish farming was introduced. This enabled the local group to designate the ponds in a natural way and to present them to the public as an example of ecological pond management. An information board on site provides information about this.
