Opis
The Heuckenlock nature reserve is located in the south of Hamburg's Elbe island of Wilhelmsburg, outside the flood protection systems and is repeatedly flooded during storm surges. In the forest and reed belt you can find remiz, słowik rdzawy, uszatka, dzięciołek, trzciniak, łozówka and potrzos. But bielik, herons and kormoran can also be found. A hiking trail leads through the area.
In addition to birds, the nature reserve also offers a lot for plant lovers. The oldest tree was a 400-year-old white elm with a trunk circumference of over four meters, which fell in 2013 but is still alive. There are over 400 different species of plants, including rare plants such as the wild tulip, checkerboard flower and the very rare hemlock water fennel.

Before visiting the Heuckenlock, you should find out about the water level of the river Elbe, as parts or the entire area will be flooded if the water level is above average high water. After strong storms, the forest path may be closed if trees have fallen.
