Wollmatinger Ried - Untersee - Gnadensee, Nature reserve at Lake Constance, Germany
Wollmatinger Ried - Untersee - Gnadensee is a protected area at Lake Constance with reed beds, flood meadows, and riverside forests. This patchwork of different habitats stretches between Constance and Reichenau and provides space for diverse species.
The area received protection status in 1938 and gained international recognition as a Ramsar wetland in 1976. These two milestones mark its growth from local to global importance.
This reserve serves as a teaching place where visitors learn about reed-dwelling creatures and water ecosystems. People come here to understand how nature and lake management work together.
Visitors find observation points near Hegne campsite and along Reichenauer Damm. Group tours can be arranged to help you better understand the trails and special features.
The area hosts roughly one-quarter of all waterfowl on Lake Constance and includes several small islands like Triboldingerbohl and Langbohl. These isolated spots provide nesting space for specialized bird species.
