The steep riparian zones created by the sinking of the Elbe were flattened as part of the renaturation so that aquatic plants and animals could settle.

Especially for ornithological reasons, the area has been designated as a nature reserve. With its sandy-gravelly shorelines, the water surfaces and the surrounding forest, the area forms a valuable alternative habitat for former biotopes on the Rhine.

From specially created viewing points, visitors can observe grebes, coots, gray geese or an impressive gray heron colony with up to 20 breeding pairs. A stately heron colony has settled here, but also rare ducks, geese and cormorants use the Elbe, the Dreiecksweiher and the headlands as a retreat area.
