Ahlder Pool, Heathland pond in Emsland, Germany
The Ahlder Pool spans 42 hectares and contains shallow waters reaching depths of 50 centimeters within a sand lowland environment.
The area received its nature reserve designation in 1963, leading to the implementation of protection measures for endangered plant species.
The site forms part of the NATURA 2000 European protection system, contributing to regional conservation efforts for rare plant communities.
The protected area includes a buffer zone that reduces nutrient input, with access restricted to designated public paths.
The pond contains one of Germany's few remaining populations of water lobelia, a plant species facing extinction.
