Pätzer Kiesgrube, Protected area in Bestensee, Germany
The Pätzer Kiesgrube extends over 15.5 hectares of land within the Dahme-Spreewald district, bordered by the B179 road and A13 motorway.
The Brandenburg state government designated this former gravel pit as a nature reserve through official regulations implemented on March 5, 2002.
This conservation area represents the regional commitment to environmental protection, featuring specific habitats for local plant communities and wildlife species.
Visitors can access designated paths throughout the reserve, which connects to the adjacent Pätzer Hintersee nature reserve spanning 462 hectares.
The reserve contains specialized environments for species adapted to nutrient-poor conditions, including kingfishers, sand lizards, and multiple dragonfly species.
