This area is designated for its exceptional value as a structure-rich forest and lake landscape, providing critical habitats for rare animal and plant species. As an integral part of the Feldberg Lake District Nature Park, and recognized as a Natura 2000 site under EU law, its European significance for nature conservation is highlighted.
