Backofen-Riedwiesen, Protected area in Mannheim, Germany.
Backofen-Riedwiesen spans 147.7 hectares of wetlands, meadows, and old Rhine sections with alluvial forests between Mannheim, Brühl, and Edingen-Neckarhausen regions.
The German government established this conservation area in 1984 to protect the natural resources and preserve the ecological balance of the Rhine floodplain system.
This natural reserve functions as an educational site where researchers and students examine local ecosystems and conduct environmental monitoring programs.
Visitors can explore an 8.67-kilometer walking trail that starts near Restaurant Heimat's parking lot and continues through various natural landscapes along the Rhine.
The area contains specific habitats that support multiple endangered species, including amphibians, insects, and birds that depend on the diverse biotopes.
