The forests at Jagdschloss Göhrde are a former nature reserve in the community-free area of ​​Göhrde in the Lüchow-Dannenberg district in Lower Saxony .

The former nature reserve with the sign NSG LÜ 257 is 170  hectares in size. It is part of the FFH area "Beech and oak forests in the Göhrde (with Breeser Grund)", which consists of four individual areas , to which the former nature reserves " Kellerberg " and " Breeser Grund " belonged. The area has been under nature protection since August 16, 2003. In this area, it replaced the "Elbhöhen-Drawehn" landscape protection area designated by ordinance of August 1, 1974 with the label DAN 27. On February 21, 2019, it was incorporated into the " Oak and Beech Forests in Göhrde " nature reserve . The responsible lower nature conservation authority is the Lüchow-Dannenberg district.

The former nature reserve is located south of the town of Göhrde within the Elbhöhen-Wendland nature park in the Göhrde state forest . The former nature reserve borders in the northeast on the federal highway 216 and in the northwest on the state highway 253. It placed an old, near-natural forest on a terminal moraine ridge, which is characterized by beech , oak , pine and spruce stands. A lot of old and dead wood can be found within the nature reserve .

A small heather area with poor grass and the 41 hectare “Ewige Route” natural forest reserve, which was designated in 1996, were included in the former nature reserve. While the natural forest reserve is left to its natural development, the forest in the rest of the former nature reserve is managed for forestry taking into account the protection purpose. In particular, non-site trees (including larch , spruce and Douglas fir , but also non-site deciduous trees such as sycamore and red oak ) are converted into near-natural beech forests and light oak mixed forests on acidic sites. The above-average proportion of old and dead wood is preserved and further developed, and eyrie and cave trees are also preserved.

There is an educational forest trail in the former nature reserve .
