Description

Kalløgrå was used to deposit sludge from the sugar factory in Sakskøbing for a period of 10 years. In 2003 around 30ha of the area was taken over by the Aage V. Jensen Fund and a thorough re-establishment project was carried out, so that the area is now a wetland with lakes, wet and dry meadows - some of which are grazed - and remains of embankments.

Several wader species breed at Kalløgrå, for example Vanneau huppé, Chevalier gambette and Huîtrier pie. A fair-sized colony of Avocette élégante and a small colony of Mouette rieuse can be seen on the islet in the lake. Goéland cendré, Sterne arctique and Sterne pierregarin nest here, too. There are also a few pairs of Grèbe castagneux and several pairs of Grèbe jougris. Busard des roseaux nest in the reedbeds. The area is a good stop-over site for many species of ducks and waders during migration. In autumn, large numbers of Pluvier doré, Bécasseau variable, Courlis cendré and smaller numbers of Pluvier argenté, Bécasseau minute, Bécasseau cocorli, Bécassine des marais, Chevalier arlequin and Chevalier aboyeur stop over here.

Accès

From the main 153 road between Sakskøbing and Guldborg, drive north to Kallø. Drive into the village and then north along Kalløgråvej, which becomes a gravel road. By continuing along this road one reaches a sheep fence, where one can park. From here there is access to a bird observation tower, from which there is a splended view over the area. Walking or cycling inside the fences is permitted, but please keep to the paths in order not to disturb the staging and breeding birds.
