The nature reserve with the sign NSG HA 117 is 8  hectares in size. It is part of the FFH area "Ith". The area has been a nature reserve since January 15, 1987. The responsible lower nature conservation authority is the district of Hameln-Pyrmont.

The nature reserve is located within the Weserbergland Schaumburg-Hameln nature park near Ockensen at the eastern foot of the Ith in the valley basin of the Ockenser Bach.
