Popis

The Brandiger Berg Nature Reserve in Marsberg is a significant part of the European Natura 2000 protected area system. Its core purpose is to safeguard the Natura 2000 ecological network, specifically as part of the "Diemel and Hoppecke River System" FFH area and the "Diemel and Hoppecke Valley with adjacent Forests" bird protection area. This area preserves natural habitats for a variety of animal and plant species. A unique feature includes the secured adits, which serve as valuable winter roosts or retreats for bats and other cave-dwelling species. Through its connection to adjacent protected areas like the Lower Hoppecke Valley Nature Reserve, a continuous, ecologically valuable network is formed, contributing significantly to the preservation of regional biodiversity.
