Protection purpose

According to the landscape plan, it was designated “to maintain and restore the efficiency of the natural balance, particularly because of its importance as a breeding and feeding biotope and as a winter resting place for numerous water bird species on the Red List; because of the diversity, uniqueness and beauty of the landscape of the Ruhr and the Hengsteysee and because of its special importance as a recreational area close to the city for the districts of Kabel and Boele ”.
