Quarry ponds surrounded by a 32-hectare nature reserve in the Neckar valley west of the town of Wernau.
The quarry ponds of Wernauer Baggerseen provide valuable habitat for wetland-bound bird species, but the surrounding bushes also attract many other birds. So far, more than 200 bird species have been recorded, which regularly or occasionally come here as breeding birds or to rest and forage during migration or in winter. Among the birds you can observe are Veliki ronac, Crnoglava grmuša, Siva grmuša, Mali slavuj, Vodomar, Rusi svračak and others. The waters can unfortunately only be observed from a distance.
Wernauer Baggerseen are located west of the town of Wernau. You can park in the Stadionweg street. Click on the P in the map for directions. You can explore the area on foot, by bike and also by wheelchair.
