Description

The former landfill is a fenced area where the grass is kept short by farm animals, but also holds some wood and rock piles where Tarier pâtre and Traquet motteux can be found. Also keep an eye on the gravel path where with some luck Petit Gravelot can be be spotted. Opposite to the landfill there is a quarry. It is still active and hard to look into due to a lot of vegetation around. Next to it there is a bigger area behind a soil dam with shallow water ponds and low vegetation.

There, especially in the spring and summer you can find Vanneau huppé, Tarier pâtre, Alouette des champs, Bruant des roseaux and Rousserolle effarvatte and there is a pair of Busard des roseaux that regularly visits. Many Hirondelle rustique and Hirondelle de fenêtre hunt for insects over the water.

During migration season in the spring and the fall, also check for waders such as Chevalier aboyeur, Bécassine des marais, Chevalier culblanc, but also Hirondelle de rivage. I have also spotted Gorgebleue à miroir and Balbuzard pêcheur here, but both only once. The best time to visit is in late spring when all the migratory birds are back. Eventually the grass grows so tall that the water areas are barely visible anymore.

Accès

Kiesgruben und Sondermülldeponie Bornheim is best reached by bike and poorly connected to public transportation. There is the tram stop Bornheim-Hersel, but the fastest way to the area goes through an underpass underneath a freeway and that is almost always flooded. The train station Bornheim-Roisdorf is around 45 minutes walking distance.
