Brunnenfeld Süd - the orchid land

175 plant species make all nature lovers rave

The former fountain field is located between the B20 and the Völtendorfer Berg in the so-called Steinfeld. For decades, the former well protection area was not fertilized and bush encroachment was prevented by annual, one-off mowing. As a result, valuable semi-arid grasslands with animal and plant species that would otherwise have become rare could develop. Here, among other things, the sword-bladed forest bird, a native type of orchid and the crested milkwort bloom.
A comprehensive bird fauna and a good 20 types of grasshoppers are interesting for young and old to discover.
