In the herb layer settle u. a. Shadow flowers , seven-star , wood anemones , golden nettles , willows , forest and pill sedge and thorn fern . Old hat oaks are scattered in the woods . The forests have well-developed old and dead wood stocks and should be able to continue to develop naturally. To the southwest of the Burg Dinklage monastery , grassland areas are included in the nature reserve.

The area also serves as a recreational area and can be experienced in several ways.

Opinions

The NABU Lohne welcomes the fact that the Burgwald Lohne is a nature reserve since 2017th In particular, it is to be assessed positively that the rare Russian beetle is protected more effectively than before and that the horse paddock at Dinklage Castle has been included in the new NSG.

However, the "precarious water balance " of the NSG is still unresolved ; the regulation on the NSG does not regulate the "still desolate water balance of the entire Burgwald complex". The Burgwald will be surrounded and isolated by advancing development, and the aim of the biotope network will be ignored when business parks are planned in Dinklage and Lohne .

For the Federal Agency for Nature Conservation , experts regret that, due to its small size, they did not include the Dinklage Castle Forest in the list of landscapes “of great importance for the natural and cultural heritage” or “of great importance for the experience of the landscape / landscape-related recreation” even though the castle forest is one of the "historically significant cultural landscapes nationwide".
