Hullerbusch und Schmaler Luzin, Nature reserve in Feldberger Seenlandschaft, Germany.
Hullerbusch und Schmaler Luzin is a nature reserve of approximately 340 hectares in southern Mecklenburg-Vorpommern with a long, narrow lake and steep shorelines. The area combines mixed forest with wetland habitats that are typical of this glacial lake region.
The reserve was established in 1967 and preserves evidence of the last ice age, including tunnel valleys and terminal moraines that still define the landscape structure. These glacial formations shaped the creation and character of the lake basin.
The area provides habitat for numerous bird species including black woodpeckers, stock doves, and common cranes that visitors can observe here. This wildlife shapes the character of the place and makes it a destination for nature watchers.
A manually operated cable ferry connects the two shorelines daily and provides a special way to cross through the reserve. Walking trails around the lake allow observations from different angles and are accessible on foot or by bicycle.
The lake is home to Mysis relicta, a small relict crustacean from the ice age that feeds the native whitefish population. This ancient creature has survived in the lake's depths as a living fossil from glacial times.
