The landscape protection area Elsmecke and the adjacent spring basin northwest of Bracht was designated as one of 58 landscape protection areas of type C, meadow valleys and significant extensive grassland in the urban area of Schmallenberg.

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.
