Landscape protection area Ellenberg
The Ellenberg nature reserve, with a size of 9.39 hectares, is located west of Niedersfeld in the urban area of Winterberg . The area was in 2008 by the council of Hochsauerlandkreises with the landscape plan Winterberg as a conservation area designated (LSG). These are mountain meadows and poor pastures. The LSG is a legally protected biotope according to § 30 BNatSchG.
Area description
It is a poor grassland area, which is a legally protected biotope according to § 30 BNatSchG .
Protection purpose
The designation was made to supplement the nature reserve designation in the Winterberg floodplains to create a network of open-land biotopes so that animals and plants retain the opportunity to migrate and spread, and to preserve the occurrence of protected bird species and protect species-rich plant communities.
Legal regulations
The Ellenberg landscape protection area was designated as one of 13 type C landscape protection areas, meadow valleys and significant extensive grassland in the urban area of Winterberg. As in the other 12 landscape protection areas of type C in the Winterberg landscape planning area, there is a ban on converting grassland and fallow land into arable land or other forms of use in the LSG valley system of the Elpe . First afforestation and the creation of Christmas tree crops is prohibited. A maximum of two years of arable use within twelve years is permitted, provided that this prepares the renewal of the sward. This is considered an extended nursing shift . In the case of extended care changes , a minimum distance of five meters from the central water bed must be maintained.
