Beschreibung
The Rußweiher fishponds complex consists of 4 lakes. The Große Rußweiher pond is home to a large colony of Lachmöwe and breeding pairs of Schwarzhalstaucher. On the large open water surfaces Kolbenente, Tafelente and Reiherente are common. At the smaller pond Rußlohweiher to the north, in addition to various ducks, there is a breeding ground for the Rohrweihe. A Fischadler breeds at the pond Häusleweiher. Large numbers of Höckerschwan, Kanadagans and Nilgans can often be found here. The pond Paulusweiher has completely silted up to form a low moor and is overgrown with reeds. Here Neuntöter, Bekassine and Bartmeise can be observed.

Zugang
Getting there by train and bus is possible, but the frequency is bad. The best way is to come by car via the B470. A parking lot for hikers is located to the left after Großkotzenreuth, and another parking lot directly at the large Rußweiher pond. Click on a P in the map to get directions to the parking place of your choice. Access by bike is possible, but not all paths are open to bikes.
