Lauffener Neckarschlinge, Protected natural area in Lauffen am Neckar, Germany.

Located along the Neckar River, this 69.7-hectare reserve features riparian forests, wetlands, and limestone formations supporting diverse wildlife species.

Established on March 17, 1970, the area preserves a natural meander that the Neckar River abandoned approximately 6,000 years ago.

The nature reserve contributes to environmental education through guided tours and programs that highlight the importance of local ecosystem preservation.

Visitors can access the reserve through marked trails near Landesstraße L 1103 and B 27 roads, with year-round opportunities for hiking and nature observation.

The reserve contains geological formations from the Muschelkalk period, creating specific conditions for specialized plant communities in the valley floor.
