Landscape protection area grassland complex on Frettholz
The landscape protection area Grünlandkomplex am Frettholz with 29.05 hectares is located east of Brilon . The landscape protection area was designated as a landscape protection area (LSG) by the Hochsauerlandkreis in 2008 with the landscape plan of the Brilon plateau . The LSG almost completely surrounds the Frettholz nature reserve and borders directly on the settlement area of Brilon in the northwest. The LSG is partially divided by the single-track Almetalbahn .
description
The LSG serves as a buffer zone for the Frettholz nature reserve . In the southwest part there are several relics of ore mining. Field trees grow on the upward and downward slopes of the Eisentrasse. On both sides of the railway line, especially in shallow hilltop locations, beech-rich field trees are preserved and species-rich poor grassland.
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 landscape protection area Grünlandkomplex am Frettholz was designated as a landscape protection area of type C, 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.
