Descrizione
The Zitzmannsdorfer Wiesen were declared Burgenland’s first strict nature reserve in 1962. The ecological value of this largest connected area of lowland meadows in Burgenland was recognised early on. Apart from the four classic meadow-breeding waders – Pavoncella, Pittima reale, Chiurlo maggiore, and Pettegola – the area is known for the occurrence of Albanella minore and Gufo di palude - breeding irregularly. Other species such as Tarabuso, Pettazzurro, Forapaglie macchiettato, Bigia padovana, Averla piccola, and Strillozzo can almost always be detected here.

SiInformazioni aggiuntive
The two towns Weiden am See and Podersdorf am See are connected by a bike path (approx. 7 km long), running along the western edge of the meadows, on the lake dune. This partially raised and largely unpaved track offers a great overview of the area’s astonishing expanse, and good opportunities to observe species of the lakeshore zone.
