Pfrunger-Burgweiler Ried, Nature reserve in Ostrach, Germany.
The Pfrunger-Burgweiler Ried is a protected nature reserve with approximately 440 hectares of moorland spanning several municipalities and containing various wetland areas and reed beds. The landscape is shaped by natural water features and diverse habitats that define the region.
The area was placed under protection in 1941 and is considered one of the largest moorlands in southwestern Germany. This designation marked the beginning of systematic efforts to preserve this important wetland landscape.
The visitor center in Wilhelmsdorf displays exhibitions about the moorland and its development. There visitors can learn more about the habitats found in these wetland areas.
The area is accessible via multiple walking routes of varying lengths starting from meeting points like the visitor center in Wilhelmsdorf or Burgweiler. Visitors should bring appropriate footwear and clothing suitable for boggy and damp conditions.
The Bannwaldturm is an observation tower that rises above the entire moorland and provides views across the entire landscape. From the top, visitors can see the expansive wetlands and their inhabitants from a completely new vantage point.
