Surname	image	Identifier	details	position	Area hectares	date
Amolterer Heath		3,026 WDPA: 81304	Endingen am Kaiserstuhl Different exposed slopes on the eastern slope of the Galgenberg (327 m) in the northern Kaiserstuhl; tephritic rocks with a thin layer of loess; treeless, dry and very warm slopes with semi-arid grass.	⊙	11.2	1939-10-20
Zweribach		3,077 WDPA: 82964	Sankt Märgen , St. Peter (Black Forest) , Simonswald Karmulde open to the northeast with drainage to the Wildgutach valley. The Zweribach and Hirschbach, coming from flat high valleys, tumble in waterfalls over the Karwand. Dry, exposed rubble heaps are planted with deciduous beech and fir forests with linden, maple and sessile oak, elm and ash are also involved in the rubble slopes. Species-rich canyon and scree forests in often primeval forest-like stands of protected forest .	⊙	95.5	1969-09-02
Limberg		3,087 WDPA: 82096	Sasbach The largest and most closed occurrences of the downy oak forest (bush and high forest) in the Kaiserstuhl area, relic of a forest that was formerly widespread on the steep slopes facing south and almost completely destroyed by viticulture. Less exposed slopes carry the sedge-linden forest, which is a very characteristic forest community for the southern Upper Rhine area, the locations of which have largely been converted into fields, orchards and vineyards. As a relic from the post-glacial warm period, the sedge-linden forest could only survive in those locations where the common beech could not penetrate it during its post-glacial immigration for climatic and edaphic reasons. At the edges of the forest, a colorful and species-rich fringing society comes to training. The dry grass in the few open places are distinguished by floristic rarities.	⊙	29.4	1973-08-16
