Description
Steinfeldsee is a former gravel pit that has been transformed into a valuable habitat for migratory birds, including geese, ducks, and sometimes rare bird species. The lake is not open for human activities like swimming or fishing, as it is dedicated solely to wildlife preservation. The lake has an observation platform from where you have good views of the lake and surrounding landscape. Birds that have been observed include Ψαραετός, Φοινικόσιηνα, Μαυροκέφαλη Πάπια, Ψαλιδιάρης, Πρασινοκέφαλη Πάπια, (Βουβός) Κύκνος, Σκουφοβουτηχτάρι, (Ευρωπαϊκή) Βουκεφάλα and Μαύρος Πελαργός.
