パーシュリングの天然記念物・トップ20

ニーダーエスターライヒ州トライズマウアーにあるトライズ川の河口は、技術と自然がどのようにうまく調和できるかを示す魅力的な例です。ここではトライズ川がドナウ川に合流しますが、かつては今日ほど牧歌的ではありませんでした。元々、トライズ川は約7.5キロメートル上流で合流していました。1970年代にドナウ川のアルテンヴェルト水力発電所が建設されたことで、すべてが変わりました。発電所のためにドナウ川の水位が上昇したため、トライズ川は自然に流れ出ることができなくなりました。そのため、まったく新しい川床を掘削する必要がありました。

Very idyllic place

Power station in Haspelwald

It's a pity that there is no catering here anymore😌

The LIFE+ Traisen project was one of the largest renaturation projects in Austria and was implemented between 2009 and 2019. The aim was to transform the previously straightened lower reaches of the Traisen into a near-natural floodplain landscape. This resulted in a new, meandering river course with diverse bank structures and wetlands over a length of around 9.4 kilometers. This created valuable habitats for numerous animal and plant species, including endangered species. The implementation required extensive earthworks, in which large quantities of gravel and sediment were moved to create still waters and shallow water zones. The cost of the project was around 30 million euros and was financed by various public and private partners.

The areas along this section combine flood protection with nature conservation and offer the opportunity for a tour along the Traisen River. The renaturalization and the creation of flood protection zones contribute to promoting biodiversity and preserving the habitat for animals and plants. At the same time, flood safety for the city is improved by creating floodplains. The bridge and paths allow for active use of the area without unduly impacting nature.

A very impressive tree. If you want to see it, you have to push your bike into the ditch, as cycling is prohibited here! But the view is definitely worth the short walk from the road.
