According to the Bavarian State Forests, the Manteler Forest is one of the most species-rich areas in Bavaria. Its great importance for nature conservation is based above all on the close juxtaposition of dry sand habitats, near-natural waters and moors. There are the following nature reserves:

• Gscheibte Loh natural forest reserve
• Fauna-flora-habitat- area Lohen in the Manteler forest with Schießlweiher and Straßweiherkette
