Glindower Alpen

The Glindower Alpen encompasses 106 hectares of natural terrain, featuring natural lakes, calcareous grasslands, and oak woods at 58 meters above sea level.

In 1995, this location received its official protected status, followed by designation as a Site of Community Importance under European Union directives in 2004.

The nature reserve functions as an educational center where scientists conduct research on local plant species and document ecological developments throughout the seasons.

Visitors can access multiple walking paths through the protected zone while maintaining distance from sensitive plant habitats to ensure their preservation.

Three distinct habitat types coexist within this space: natural eutrophic lakes, xeric sand calcareous grasslands, and old acidophilous oak woods on sandy plains.
