In the surrounding area, damp meadows, marshes and open fields with scattered trees and dense shrubberies are located. When walking through the area listen for pungmes, which in some years is breeding in the area. Other birds of interest can be årta, lärkfalk, gräshoppsångare, vit stork, enkelbeckasin, rödspov, enkelbeckasin and Fiskgjuse.

On the south side of the ponds, a birdingtower is located which gives a slightly (due to vegetation) narrow view of the area. From the tower leads a path south through the meadows and shrubland in which gräshoppsångare and pungmes can be heard.
