Nöttinger Viehweide und Badertaferl

The Nöttinger Viehweide und Badertaferl spans 148 hectares of natural terrain, featuring dry grasslands, juniper bushes, and distinctive solitary trees.

The medieval grazing practices by cattle, pigs, sheep, and goats shaped this landscape before the area belonged to Geisenfeld Monastery until 1803.

The nature reserve maintains traditional grazing methods with sheep and goats, preserving rare plant species like the Siberian iris and military orchid.

Dogs must be kept on leashes throughout the protected area to ensure the safety of grazing animals and wildlife preservation.

The site houses specific bat species like barbastelle and Daubenton's bats, along with rare beetles such as the longhorn and great capricorn.
