The nature reserve with the sign NSG LÜ 314 is about 170  hectares . About 2.1 hectares of this are in the Uelzen district. The area is almost congruent with the 171.77 hectare FFH area of the same name and is located in the EU bird sanctuary "Südheide and Aschauteiche bei Eschede". The nature reserve is bordered to the south by the conservation area "Südheide in the district of Celle" (LSG CE 025).

Acid mixed oak forest with English oak can also be found in the northeast of the protected area . Only small areas of coniferous wood grow in the nature reserve . The proportion of coniferous trees that are not suitable for the location is to be reduced and converted into naturally occurring forest communities in the long term.
