Bastauwiesen, Nature reserve in Hille, Germany.
Description
Bastauwiesen is a nature reserve in the Minden-Lübbecke region made up of wetlands, meadows, and waterways. The area provides habitat for diverse plants and animals across a complex natural ecosystem.
History
The area was designated as a protected reserve in 1988 and developed from former agricultural land. This transformation allowed natural habitats of the region to be safeguarded.
Culture
The site shows how traditional grazing by sheep and cattle shapes the landscape and keeps the meadows open. This long-standing land use practice has become an important part of conservation work today.
Practical
The reserve can be visited through various access points, including a marked circular walking route that spans several kilometers. Good footwear and weather-appropriate clothing are recommended, as the terrain includes wet areas.
Did you know?
Corncrakes, whinchats, and little grebes use this location for breeding and resting. These particular bird species depend on the open meadow landscape that the reserve provides.
