Selketal

The Selketal reserve contains diverse habitats including forests, rivers, and valleys that support numerous native plant and animal species throughout its boundaries.

Local residents participate in environmental education programs within the reserve, sharing knowledge about conservation practices and natural heritage with visitors.

Visitors can access multiple maintained walking trails throughout the reserve, with informational signs providing guidance about local flora and fauna identification.

Rangers conduct regular monitoring of wildlife populations in Selketal, collecting data that contributes to broader scientific research about German ecosystems.
