description
The nature reserve is accompanied by the Lombach with its spring depths and with its floodplain. In the upper reaches, the alluvial forest is mostly occupied by alders , hornbeams and oaks , in places with the addition of spruce . In the lower reaches of the river you come across damp grassland that borders the alder-lined stream. An old dump below the Breidenassel quarry and a short ravine in the adjacent rock with a small waterfall just before the Agger valley represent scenic and ecological special locations.
