The Maibachtal nature reserve is a 148 hectare nature reserve in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania between the towns of Dudendorf, Kölzow (both belonging to the municipality of Dettmannsdorf ) and Ehmkendorf . It serves to protect a largely natural lowland stream including the adjacent forest areas. The eponymous Maibach flows from northwest to southeast and flows into the Recknitz . The designation took place in 1990. Characteristic are flat banks with wet meadows and hillside forests. The state of the area is good. The areas have been owned by the Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania Nature Conservation Union since September 2009 .

There are several ways to enter the areas. The European long-distance hiking trail E 10 leads through the eastern part of the nature reserve.

A merger of the previous nature reserves Maibachtal, Teufelssee near Thelkow , Ehmkendorfer Moor , Gramstorfer Berge and Recknitzwiesen (partially) to form the new nature reserve Lieper Holz is in planning.

Flora and fauna

Irises and orchids can be found on the wet meadows . Common beech , ash and alder are characteristic of the forest areas . Kingfisher and gray wagtail should be highlighted among breeding birds . The rare and critically endangered lesser spotted eagle occurs.
