Landscape protection area grassland complex Kalberstert / Scheffelberg
The nature reserve grassland complex Kalberstert / Scheffelberg with 33.63 hectares is located east of Brilon . The area was designated as a landscape protection area (LSG) by the Hochsauerlandkreis in 2008 with the landscape plan of the Brilon plateau . The LSG consists of four sub-areas, all of which border the Scheffelberg / Kalberstert nature reserve and serve as a buffer zone for the NSG.
Area description
The LSG comprises grassland, predominantly east or west exposed meadows on slopes. The grassland areas are divided in places by embankments and field trees. The southern and eastern parts of the area also serve as a buffer zone for the Bruch am Kirchloh.
Protection purpose
The designation was carried out to maintain, supplement and optimize a grassland biotope network system, in particular with the nature reserve designations in grassland. In this way, animals and plants should retain the opportunity to migrate and spread. Like the other type C landscape protection areas, this designation also serves as a buffer zone for adjacent nature protection areas.
Legal framework
The nature reserve grassland complex Kalberstert / Scheffelberg has been designated as a type C nature reserve , meadow valleys and significant extensive grassland . In the landscape protection areas of type C of the landscape plan area, initial afforestation and the creation of new Christmas tree cultures, ornamental branches and tree nursery cultures are prohibited. Furthermore, there is a ban on converting grassland and fallow land into arable land or other forms of use. 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 the extended care break , a minimum distance of 5 m from the central water bed must be maintained. For the cultivation of renewable raw materials, an exemption from the ban on plowing up grassland is possible as part of a case-by-case assessment.
