The herb layer is made up of woodruff , multi-flowered white root , forest flutter grass , single-flowered and colored pearl grass , forest equestrian grass , forest panicle , forest sedge , forest barley , perennial ringel and spring pea. This is followed by forest barley and beech forests with sessile oaks .

On the northern slope of the Eichenberg, which slopes down to the Rappbodetalsperre , a beech and ash forest with Turkish lily and various ferns stands on the shoulder , which merges into a beech- maple forest with a canyon forest character. Here grow u. a. Asplenium viride , Common Polypody , Asplenium Trichomanes and Fragile bladderfern .
