The Wagbach lowlands are a nature reserve in the Northern Upper Rhine lowlands and Hardt plains natural area in Baden-Württemberg. Bird species such as cormorants, ducks, Canada geese, swans, coots, great crested grebes, grey herons, great egrets, purple herons, gull species (especially black-headed gulls), reed warblers, warblers, bearded tits, red-backed shrikes, cuckoos and kingfishers can be observed in the nature reserve. Amphibians (water frogs, common frogs, toad species) are also found, as are reptiles such as grass snakes. Among mammals, muskrat and nutria are found. The area is easily accessible. The area is easily visible from the old federal highway 36, which lies above the Wagbach lowlands and now serves as a car-free cycle path between Neulußheim and Waghäusel. Footpaths lead into the area from this side and from a farm near Waghäusel. In spring 2009, two freely accessible observation huts were built near the road, which also allow photography.
