Descrizione

In spite of urban development, the Rhine valley is remarkably rich in flora and fauna and the jewel in its crown is the alluvial forest. This forest has managed to remain relatively unspoilt. One of these forests can be found on Rohrschollen Island, only 10 km from Strasbourg city centre. Almost 160 bird species have been seen here. The forest holds 6 species of lowland woodpecker: Picchio nero, Picchio verde, Picchio cenerino, Picchio rosso maggiore, Picchio rosso mezzano and Picchio rosso minore. The forest massif also shelters several species of birds of prey, including the Nibbio bruno, attracted by the water courses and stands of stagnant water, which constitute its fishing grounds. The Astore and the Sparviere are species typically attracted to the forest habitat itself, which provides them with an excellent hunting ground. Other birds you can see are Tuffetto, Martin pescatore, Averla piccola, Forapaglie macchiettato and Migliarino di palude. In addition up to 4000 water birds gather here in winter.

_________________________

Français: Malgré son urbanisation, la bande rhénane offre une richesse écologique remarquable, dont le joyau est la forêt alluviale. Cette forêt est restée proche de l’état naturel, mais les aménagements du Rhin ont modifié la dynamique fluviale. L’une de ces forêts est située sur l’île du Rohrschollen, à 10 km du centre de Strasbourg.

Dettagli

Accesso

Follow the N 353 (the so-called southern ring road) towards Offenburg. Before you reach the Pflimlin Bridge over the Rhine, take the exit for the Port of Strasbourg and, at the roundabout, head for the incineration plant (usine d’incinération). Continue until you reach Strasbourg hydroelectric plant (usine hydroélectrique de Strasbourg) (follow the signposts). Go past the plant and take the right fork (surfaced road): park in the parking area provided.

Car parking facilities are provided on the French side (before and after the locks) and on the German side. A cycle track following the Alsace canal dyke also leads to and crosses the site. Signposted trails (the Greylag Goose trail, the Old Rhine trail, the Gallery Forest trail) allow visitors to explore the ecological treasures on show.
