Romberg nature reserve

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Romberg nature reserve with a size of 19.7  hectares is located east of Brilon . The area was designated as a nature reserve (NSG) by the Hochsauerlandkreis in 2008 with the landscape plan of the Brilon plateau . It is one of 31 nature reserves in Brilon, which belong to the group of limestone peaks with special prohibitions. A small part of the NSG belongs to the FFH area Kalkkuppen near Brilon (DE 4617-303).

Area description

The NSG is the two mountain peaks Romberg and Kleine Romberg . Rocks are exposed at both peaks. On the Großer Tettler , the rocks reach heights of up to four meters. The NSG is mainly covered by a beech forest.

Protection purpose

As with all nature reserves in Germany, the protection designation pointed out that the area became a nature reserve “because of the rarity, special character and beauty of the area”.

Prohibitions

In addition to the normal prohibitions in nature reserves, the Romberg NSG, like the other 30 limestone peaks, has additional prohibitions. It is forbidden to fertilize, roll and drag the limestone peaks. No more than two livestock units per hectare may graze at the same time. Furthermore, mowing is only permitted from July 1st of each year.
