Oeffinger Scillawald, Protected area in Fellbach, Germany.
Oeffinger Scillawald is a protected forest spanning about 12 hectares along the Neckar River near Fellbach. The soil supports a variety of spring-flowering plants and flowers due to its nutrient-rich composition.
The area gained protected status in 1972 after being affected by mining activities in earlier times. This designation transformed it from an industrial landscape into a nature conservation site.
The forest connects the communities of Oeffingen and Hofen through a walking route that locals use regularly. This pathway holds meaning for residents as a space to move through nature close to their homes.
Visitors must stay on marked pathways as off-trail walking is not permitted throughout the reserve. Camping, making fires, and collecting plants are all prohibited in this area.
The forest contains a large population of Scilla flowers that carpet the woodland floor with blue blooms during early spring. This striking blue flowering display is one of the highlights for visitors during that season.
