Description

Teichgebiet Commerau is a typical fish pond area in the UNESCO-Biosphere reserve Oberlausitzer Heide- und Teichlandschaft (Upper Lausitian heather and pond landscape). This area, as many others in the reserve, mainly consists of a cluster of shallow fish ponds of various sizes and shapes. The ponds are usually framed by reed beds, in this area large enough to host even Bıyıklı baştankara. The area is also home to wet alluvial forest areas. The variety of these habitats around these ponds is boosting also the biodiversity of other bird species. The Akkuyruklu kartal is the flagship and proud of the reserve.

Access

Teichgebiet Commerau is located north of the village of Commerau. There is no dedicated parking area for cars, so you have to search for some niche beside the road. Please do not block any small forest path for the local people.

You can explore the whole Biosphere reserve best on a bike tour. There is the dedicated Akkuyruklu kartal-Bikeway, see the link below.
