Beschrijving
Fagne de Malchamps is a peat area on a plateau with a height of up to 576 meters in the High Ardennes in the Belgian province of Liège. It consists of heather, marsh and forests. It's a very open area. It stretches across the plain. Here and there are also a number of isolated trees. The area covers 358 hectares with a length of about 3 kilometers and a width of just over a kilometer. The peat can be considered as the westernmost part of the High Fens (Haute Fagne/Hoge Venen), which is about ten kilometers away. Many different birds live in the heathland such as Nachtzwaluw, Graspieper, Boompieper, Roodborsttapuit, Sprinkhaanzanger, Grasmus, Fitis, Boomleeuwerik and the Koekoek . Naturally, many forest birds and birds of prey also live in the adjacent forests. See the birdlist below.
