Description
The Landschaftspark Hachinger Tal is a 150 hectares area in the south of Munich that is part of the Munich gravel plain. It contains the rest of a heath area and was used as a military airfield from 1933 to 1997, with the runway still existing. From March on, you hear the sound of singing (Κοινή) Σιταρήθρα from the meadows, in May/June also sometimes (Κοινό) Ορτύκι. There are protected areas for meadow breeders, see local signs. In spring there are birdsongs from Χρυσοτσίχλονο and (Κοινός) Θαμνοψάλτης in the bushes, while in May/June you find Αετομάχος and singing Κηποτσιροβάκος, Κιτρινοστριτσίδα and Βαλτοποταμίδα.
