Schnakenpohl, Protected area in Rahden, Germany
The Schnakenpohl nature reserve spans 6.69 hectares, containing a heath pond formed by wind erosion within the municipality of Varl.
Established in 1936, Schnakenpohl holds the distinction of being the first designated nature reserve in the Westfalen region of Germany.
The reserve functions as a natural educational site where visitors learn about the region's native plants, including the marsh St. John's wort.
Located between regional roads L557 and L770, the reserve offers walking paths for nature observation and botanical research activities.
The nutrient-poor water composition of Schnakenpohl creates conditions for specialized plant communities that are rare throughout Germany.
