Beskrivning
The 907-hectare Oberalsterniederung nature reserve stretches along the Upper Alster and Rönne rivers from Henstedt-Ulzburg via Wakendorf II to Nahe and Kayhude. It has been protected since 2004 and is the third largest nature reserve in Schleswig-Holstein. Highlight in the Oberalsterniederung nature reserve is the Schlappenmoor, a wet moor area where many orchids grow. The surrounding wet grasslands serve as a breeding ground for meadow birds such as storspov, enkelbeckasin and tofsvipa. Also kornknarr can be sometimes heard. In and around the Schlappenmoor you can encounter birds like buskskvätta, gulsparv , svarthakad buskskvätta, vaktel, gök, Trana, tornfalk, sånglärka and törnskata.
