Beschrijving
The Leopoldskroner Weiher is a popular destination for tourists and Salzburgians to go for a walk or jogging. There are a few benches around that can be used to rest and watch waterfowl and urban bird species. The lake is home to many native and exotic breeding bird species such as Wilde Eend, Mandarijneend, Grauwe Gans, Grote Canadese Gans, Fuut and also hosts a population of Brilduiker.
The southeastern part of the lake is a semi-natural, overgrown area that hosts many bird and fish. In the evening, chances are good for watching Blauwe Reiger, Grote Zilverreiger, IJsvogel that regularly hunt for small fish, amphibs and other food sources. During spring and autumn migration the lake is used as a stop-over site for various migratory species before crossing the Alps. Especially after extended rainy periods, birds accumulate and rare species such as Oeverloper, Roerdomp or Kwak have been spotted there.
West of the lake is a small forest. The Königswäldchen is home to Goudhaan, Gaai, Grote Bonte Specht, Bosuil and other woodland species.
