Description

Neustadtgödens was created by the extraction of sand for the construction of the motorway between 1977 and 1982. In 1985 it was designated as a nature reserve. Since then, there have been some ornithologically interesting habitats due to the succession and the settlement of fish: the 3 lakes themselves, reed areas, shallow water areas and bush areas on the dams. The lakes are good for resting water birds like Χηνοπρίστης, Νανοπρίστης, Σκουφοβουτηχτάρι, (Ευρασιατική) Χουλιαρόπαπια, (Ευρωπαϊκό) Σφυριχτάρι, Γκισάρι, Αργυροτσικνιάς or Θυελλόγλαρος. For many birds this is an attractive place because it is a fresh water near the coast. Birds like (Ευρωπαϊκή) Καλημάνα, Ποταμοσφυριχτής, Δασότρυγγας or Ακτίτης can also be observed on the shallow water areas. There is also a colony of (Ευρωπαϊκός) Κορμοράνος. The water mill is also a cultural highlight.
