    Nature reserve NSG Lippeaue from Lünen to lock Horst

    From Konrad-Adenauer-Straße in the east to the former Horst lock in the west, the nature reserve stretches in a large arc along the Lippe as a floodplain. The area of the Lippeauen appears as a large strip of grassland together with the glider airfield lying outside the protected area up to the old Buddenburg. A wide variety of bird species have long since conquered the area again as a habitat for wintering and breeding, which was not the case in the district for decades.

    As part of the rethinking and the far-reaching renaturation, the Lippe meadows and measures such as restoring continuity by flooding weirs - for example in Lippolthausen - are part of a bundle of prerequisites that not only create habitats for birds, but also for many other animal species. This also includes the wet grassland fallow land in the alluvial forest at the constricted old arm of the onion field. In this way, nature regains habitat for plants and animals, and people receive high-quality recreational space.

      Short section past the glider airfield of Lünen which is worth to drive if you are not in a hurry.
