Beschreibung
The 286 hectare Elmpter Schwalmbruch nature conservation area has a 65 ha peat bog. It is the only remnant of the former widely scattered peat bogs in the valley of the Swalm. Birds such as Blaukehlchen, Bekassine and Wasserralle breed here. The largest juniper shrub in the Lower Rhine is located on the transition to the much drier high terrace. Within the drier heather there are the breeding grounds of Schwarzkehlchen, Ziegenmelker, Wiesenpieper and Heidelerche. Elmpter Schwalmbruch is also one of the richest and most important areas for amphibians and dragonflies along the Dutch-German border.
