Characteristic
The Esselhofer Bruch is a damp and wet forest area that is primarily characterized as a mixed pine and birch forest. Due to the boggy location, the area has a pronounced layer of bushes and herbs, in which stocks of blueberries , bracken , pipe grass , bell heather and peat moss can be found. Furthermore, the Esselhofer Bruch has dry heather fragments typical of the Sennes and in the northern area also birch break forest, which is typical for nutrient-poor, acidic soil . In the north-east of the protection area, open wet grassland connects, in which tall herbaceous fields and pollarded willows can be found.
