The Tettler nature reserve with a size of 9.16  hectares is located southeast of Brilon . The area was designated as a nature reserve (NSG) by the Hochsauerlandkreis in 2008 with the landscape plan of the Brilon plateau . Three partial areas of the NSG belong to the FFH area Kalkkuppen near Brilon (DE 4617-303). It is one of 31 nature reserves in Brilon, which belong to the group of limestone peaks with special prohibitions.

Area description

The NSG is the two mountain peaks Großer Tettler and Kleine Tettler . Rocks are exposed at both peaks. On the Großer Tettler , the rocks reach a height of over four meters. In addition to a red beech forest, there are grassland areas in the NSG. Grassland also includes grasslands .

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 NSG Tettler, 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.
