Erpetal

Erpetal is a nature reserve that stretches along the Mühlenfließ stream and combines various habitats including meadows, woodland sections, and riparian areas. The site offers marked trails that allow visitors to walk through these different zones.

The area received protection in 2003 to preserve local ecosystems and wildlife habitats. This decision was part of a broader initiative to protect natural wetlands and forest areas in the region.

The area is known among nature watchers and walkers who come to observe native plants and wildlife. The open meadows and woodland edges display typical landscapes of the Brandenburg region.

The site is easily accessible on foot, and the marked routes allow safe navigation through all sections of the protected area. Sturdy footwear is recommended, especially after rain or in wetter sections.

Sheep graze in specific zones here and help maintain the landscape by keeping the meadows open and natural. This traditional method is still actively used today to preserve these habitats.
