Luchwiesen, Nature reserve in Storkow (Mark), Germany
Description
Luchwiesen is a nature reserve near Storkow featuring wetlands, damp meadows, and woodland patches that shelter diverse plant and animal species. The area is crossed by several small waterways and contains varied habitats spread across about 104 hectares.
History
The area was placed under protection in 1990 when Germany expanded its conservation program in Brandenburg following reunification. This decision was part of a broader effort to preserve the region's diverse wetland habitats.

Practical
The reserve can be explored on marked trails that guide visitors through different habitats while protecting sensitive zones from disturbance. Sturdy footwear is recommended since the ground can be wet depending on the season.
