나이덴슈타인‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪18‬개의 호수

There are two very beautiful ponds with benches.

It looks like a swamp here, everything is natural. In spring you can hear an incredible number of birds here. Nature reserve.

Protected area behind the PreZero Arena

Expelled 1988 Size 5.8 hectares Brief description: Wetland with great biological diversity, through small biotopes such as: ponds, stream banks, reed beds, large sedge meadows, tall herb corridors, wet meadows, willow breakage and hedges in the drier peripheral areas. According to the ordinance, the main protective purpose of the nature reserve is “the preservation and promotion of a wetland area that is largely natural in its structure, some of which is still under development and is being ecologically upgraded through design measures. Furthermore, it is important to protect the rare biotic communities of the wet biotope and its endangered animal and plant species". The area is characterized by meadows surrounding a small forest island characterized by alder and hybrid poplar. In this grove there are several ponds and a small forest ledge swamp. In the west, the protected area is bordered by the Rittersbach and the Gaisbartgraben, which flow here in straightened stream beds. Reed stocks, large sedge reeds, tall herb meadows, unfertilized wet meadows, fertilized meadows, broken willow, poplar plots and hedges contribute to the ecological value of this area. Depending on the season, different flowering aspects prevail. In spring, the marsh marigolds shine bright yellow, and a little later the wood rushes with some types of orchids dominate the picture. Meadowsweet, yellow loosestrife and loosestrife bloom then, while stinging nettle and hogweed set the tone in midsummer aspect. Countless insects live in this mosaic of plant communities. The ponds, created just a few years ago to replace the damaged headwaters, are a magnet for many frogs, amphibians and toads. As the sanctuary offers sufficient breeding and cover opportunities as well as a rich food supply, it attracts a large number of birds from the surrounding area.

Area: 38 ha Nature reserve since: 1989 Protective purpose: Preservation of a largely natural floodplain as a nationally important breeding and resting area for birds as well as ecological upgrading of the area through appropriate design measures. Particularities: The source of the Ilvesbach is in the "Great Forest" between Dühren and Weiler. It springs from 3 springs there. In the late Middle Ages there was a lake complex in the first part of the NSG on Weilerer Straße. The Rauwiesensee itself was created as a flood retention basin in 1978 as part of the land consolidation. The nature reserve ends at the motorway bridge. We find reed buntings, thorn warblers, red-backed shrikes, reed warblers and marsh warblers as special bird species. In addition, the Rauwiesensee is very important for migrants such as the very rare pond runner or stilt runner. A number of meadow plants that occur in nutrient-rich meadows such as meadowsweet, purple loosestrife and broomrape should also be mentioned. https://www.nabu-sinsheim.de/nreservate-in-sinsheim/

Due to the high nutrient input, a carpet of algae forms on the surface of the water in the Rauwiesensee during the hot summer months. This is not good. This will lead to oxygen depletion. 😒

A beautiful place with the two lakes, when I'm nearby I like to head for them and linger a bit. You can watch fish and water birds.

A nice place to unwind.
