The daylily field near St. Stephan is the largest daylily field in Europe. Daylilies and other orchid species bloom every June. The biotope borders the Lech floodplain forest. Picking is strictly prohibited!

The DAYLILY FIELD is part of the Lech floodplain forest with its natural growth of trees and shrubs. The floodplain forest is to be preserved as a vegetation bridge between the Alps and the Jura, as climate protection and as a landscape element of the Lech plain. The Lech once had its bed with its widely branched arms at the level of the daylily field. The NATURAL MONUMENT "DAYLILY FIELD" was placed under protection in 1982. The purpose of the protection is to preserve the characteristic remaining area of the original Lech floodplain landscape and to protect the existing plants. The existing, mostly rare plants here include the daylily, as well as the bumblebee orchid, the spider orchid, various types of hagwort, the lady's slipper, the Turk's cap lily, the lemon balm, the flax, the Siberian iris, the daphne and the laserwort. The tendrils of the clematis are also typical of the floodplain forest. The daylily (scientific name from the Greek "Hemerocallis lilio-asphodelus" - which corresponds to the German translation "day beauty") blooms in June. The plant is not native to Central Europe, but to the Mediterranean countries and southeastern Europe. However, it was naturalized in Germany centuries ago. The individual flower usually only opens for one Day. There are up to 8 flowers on one stem, which bloom on consecutive days. The LILY MEADOW with a closed population of thousands of plants is now a botanical treasure and can be described as unique in Central Europe. The property has been owned by the Swabian Natural Science Association since 1930. The annual maintenance is carried out by the "Friends of Nature" e.V. St. Stephan association.

The Hühnerberg natural monument is located near Gersthofen in the Augsburg district of Bavaria. It is characterized by its striking steep slopes along the Schmutter river and offers visitors an impressive view of the valley. The steep slopes are home to rare plant species, which is why the area is designated as a protected biotope. The Hühnerberg offers a picturesque panorama, especially at sunset. Historical finds indicate that the area was already inhabited in ancient times. It is recommended to respect nature and not to leave the designated paths in order to protect the sensitive flora and fauna.

The Chardonnaybach is an artificially created stream in the "Lechauen Nord" landscape conservation area near Gersthofen, north of Augsburg. It was created in 1996 to re-irrigate the Lech floodplains east of the Lech and thus revitalize valuable wetland habitats. Origin and course: As there was no natural water available on the east side of the Lech, a pipeline (culvert) was laid under the Lech to take water from the Lech side canal to the west. The water pressure now allows one cubic meter of water per second to reach the east bank. There it emerges in an artificial spring and initially feeds the newly created Chardonnaybach, which flows into the Branntweinbach after 850 meters. Ecological significance: The re-irrigation allowed wetland habitats to develop again in the previously dried-up Lech floodplains. The presence of the beaver in particular has contributed to the return of amphibians, dragonflies, reptiles and typical marsh plants. However, the activities of the beaver also mean that pedestrian paths are permanently flooded and the water no longer follows the planned course. Nature conservation is currently trying to specifically direct the activities of the beaver so that the water flows through again. Leisure and recreation: The Chardonnaybach and its surroundings are popular destinations for hikers and nature lovers. A nature trail, known as the “Jungle Trail in the Lechauen Nord”, leads through parts of the biotope and offers informative panels on the flora and fauna of the region. Guided tours are offered by the Augsburg Environmental Station. Getting there: The source of the Chardonnaybach is located east of the Lech near the Gersthofen tennis club. The stream runs directly under the high-voltage power line in the “Lechauen Nord” landscape conservation area. The Chardonnaybach is a successful example of renaturation measures that bring both ecological benefits and create recreational opportunities for the population.

Great area. Some Iceland feeling, so completely without trees.

There it lies... still as a grave, gigantic as a mountain and deep as the ocean... the Eglesee🤭😂

Beautifully situated pond below the castle stables. According to local history (legend) a mystical place

The Eglesee is a former moor area. This was used as a fish pond until the end of the last century. It has been processed by the community and a natural biotope has been created from it.
