Entenfang Wesseling, Protected area in Wesseling, Germany.
The Entenfang Wesseling spans 16.2 hectares, featuring a shallow lake with dense reed banks and mudflats in North Rhine-Westphalia.
The reserve, established in 1969, originated from an old Rhine river channel and received its name from a 17th-century duck hunting ground.
The protection area serves as an educational site where visitors observe 52 different breeding bird species, including endangered waterfowl and waders.
Located west of Wesseling along Rodenkirchener Street, the reserve provides designated paths for nature observation throughout the four seasons.
Fifty-five percent of all bird species known in Germany have been documented at this location, making it a primary habitat for water birds.
