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 kiuru from the meadows, in May/June also sometimes viiriäinen. There are protected areas for meadow breeders, see local signs. In spring there are birdsongs from keltasirkku and rautiainen in the bushes, while in May/June you find pikkulepinkäinen and singing lehtokerttu, kultarinta and luhtakerttunen.

During spring and autumn migration good chances of mustapäätasku, pensastasku, kivitasku or kirjosieppo, with luck also rare migrants like harjalintu or nummikirvinen. In winter especially the little stream (Hachinger Bach) can be interesting, with kuningaskalastaja, virtavästäräkki and sometimes taivaanvuohi or jänkäkurppa. From time to time several rarities have been observed in the park, like suopöllö, mustaotsalepinkäinen and rusorintakerttu.
