The Kelzer ponds are characterized by open water bodies and large stands of reeds.
Originally created by monks, the upper and lower Kelzer Teich continue to be used for fish farming. All other bodies of water were created for nature conservation reasons. Тростниковая камышевка, Малая поганка and Водяной пастушок breed in the extensive reed beds. Чеглок and Болотный лунь hunt here and every year at migration time Скопа can be observed. Occasionally, rarities such as Большая выпь, Серощекая поганка or Рыжая цапля are also reported. In winter the water from the ponds is drained.
You can park directly at the lower Kelzer Teich next to the B83. Click on the P in the map for directions. The lower pond is directly visible. The upper Kelzer Teich can be reached via a sandy path. A narrow path leads to a small observation hide.
