Rheinaue Friemersheim, Protected nature reserve along Rhine River in Duisburg, Germany
The Rheinaue Friemersheim extends over 262 hectares with meadows, hedgerows, and orchards along the Rhine's natural floodplain system.
The area received its protected status in 1979 and was expanded in 1991 when the city of Duisburg acquired the land from Krupp company.
Traditional agricultural practices maintain the old fruit orchards containing regional varieties such as Rheinischer Krummstiel and Bohnapfel apples.
A path on the Rhine dike provides opportunities for walking and cycling while observing the diverse landscape and wildlife throughout the seasons.
The nature reserve includes a former Rhine arm called 'Roos' that temporarily reconnects with the main river during annual flood events.
