FFH can also be defined as 'fly eats skin', at least in this area.

If you don't know what to do with the abbreviation "FFH" in the highlight name: This is a "flora-fauna-habitat area", so named after a Europe-wide EU law for nature and landscape protection from 1992. It is officially called "Directive 92/43/EEC for the conservation of natural habitats and wild animals and plants", which adequately describes its meaning and purpose. In order to be designated as such an FFH area, special requirements must be met so that plants (flora) and animals (fauna) can be protected in this habitat. In Germany alone there are already more than four and a half thousand FFH areas.

Beautiful area to stay.

The Lahnaue nature reserve includes wet meadows and several lakes that were created from former gravel pits. The area has developed into an important resting and transit area for waterfowl. So always stay on the path. If you keep quiet, you have a good chance of spotting some of the shy birds.

Always worth a visit.

There is a circular path around the lake, wide enough for oncoming traffic, easy to drive. So you can see the lake from all directions. A part of the circular route is only permitted for pedestrians, is that meant seriously?

The Bergwerkswald is an 86.47-hectare forest area between Giessen and Linden, 20 percent of which is on the territory of the city of Giessen, 80 percent belongs to Linden. The area was placed under nature protection for the first time in 1955 and for the second time in 1972. Since 2001, the mine forest has been a fauna-flora habitat (FFH), Natura 2000 and nature reserve. Fernie pit, former open pit mine on the southern edge of the mine forest The name comes from the numerous mines in this area in the past, the iron and manganese ore deposits were among the largest in Germany. In addition, lime and manganese clay were mined. The cavities resulting from the exploitation between 1843 and 1952 in open pit and tunnel mining still lead to sudden ground subsidence from time to time. Large parts of the forest are nature reserves, in which there are many lakes, plants and animals. The lakes were partly created when Allied bomber formations missed their targets during the air raid on Gießen on December 6, 1944 and dropped the bomb load over the forest. Small pools and ponds have emerged from the bomb craters, which offer a good habitat, especially for midwife toads and a very large population of crested newts. There are also water bats.
