Boyneburg und Schickeberg bei Breitau, Protected nature reserve in Sontra and Ringgau, Germany
The Boyneburg and Schickeberg conservation area spans 292 hectares of diverse habitats, including beech forests, limestone cliffs, and mixed mountain forests.
The protected area contains medieval castle ruins from the Boyneburg fortress, which served to control imperial estates during the early Middle Ages.
Research studies conducted in 2004 documented endangered plant species, including yellow lady's slipper orchids and various other orchid species within the reserve.
Visitors can explore the area through the Premium Trail P13 and the Barbarossa Path, which both cross through the nature reserve and lead to Boyneburg.
The geological formation features frequent limestone rock falls, making it one of the most active sites for natural rock displacement in Germany.
