Uhlstädter Heide, Nature reserve in Thuringia, Germany
The Uhlstädter Heide spans 1,153 hectares across three administrative regions: Uhlstädt-Kirchhasel, Unterwellenborn, and Krölpa, featuring diverse ecosystems and natural landscapes.
The establishment of Uhlstädter Heide as a protected area in 1981 marked a significant step in preserving the region's natural heritage and ecological systems.
Local communities participate in conservation programs that focus on reintroducing Taurus cattle and Exmoor ponies to maintain natural grazing patterns.
Visitors can access designated hiking trails throughout the reserve while adhering to conservation guidelines that protect the local flora and fauna.
The reserve implements a forest-pasture ecosystem project where Taurus cattle, bred to replicate extinct aurochs, maintain the natural balance of the landscape.
