Description
The Alter Rhein (Old Rhine) near Diepoldsau is a good birdingplace for the usual european water-birds like Jégmadár or Búbos vöcsök. The area has floodplain-forests, little ponds but also the old river which transformed into to some lakes. Next to a lot of different birds you can also see beavers, snakes, lizards and many other species.
