Alema Nature Reserve

Alema Nature Reserve is a protected area in Saue Rural Municipality featuring multiple distinct habitats such as wetlands and forests. These varied environments support many plant and animal species that are native to Estonia.

The area received protected status in 1981 to safeguard its natural resources and the diversity of species living there. This designation reflected efforts to preserve important ecosystems for future generations.

The reserve serves as a place where locals and visitors connect with the natural environment and learn about the ecosystems found across Estonia. Educational activities here help people understand the importance of protecting native habitats and wildlife.

The reserve is open throughout the year with designated trails marked with information boards. The signs provide details about the habitats and the species you may encounter while walking through the area.

The reserve functions as a research site where scientists study Estonia's natural ecosystems in detail. Regular monitoring helps track how populations of native animals change and respond to environmental conditions.
