This comprises the moor area of the Pinnowsee as the habitat of endangered animal and
plant species. The area should be given over to independent self-regulation.
29. Total reservation No. 19c
This comprises predominantly pine trees on old dunes of the Weichsel ice age. The
development of the pine into a climax community should be investigated under the conditions
of a weakly maritime-influenced macro-climate and the nutrient content of the Brandenburg
stage.
30. NCA No. 20 “Rarangseen”
- For the conservation and re-establishment of natural habitats of endangered animal and
plant species, especially the communities of the lakes, moors and moor flora.
31. NCA No. 21 “Großer Lubowsee”
- or the conservation and promotion of the natural habitats of endangered animal and plant
species of lake Lübow and the Bruchgebiet.
32. NCA No. 22 “Wacholderjagen”
- For the conservation of the natural habitats of endangered animal and plant species.
33. NCA No. 23 “Grumsiner Forst/Redernswalde”
- For the conservation, re-establishment and promotion of the natural habitats of endangered
animal and plant species.
34. Total reservation No. 23 a
This comprises one of the largest accretion moors of a former lake. After the reestablishment
of a natural water balance, these areas should be given over to independent
self-regulation.
35. Total reservation No.23b-
This comprises the central area of a strongly arrested area, with features including
precipitation-fed lakes and kettle holes and various moors. This also contains old beech
stock on bolder clay sand mosaics of the Pomeranian stage of the Weichsel ice age. The
development of the beech and oak stocks under the conditions of a weakly maritime
influenced macro-climate in the direction of a climax community should be investigated.
36. NCA No. 24 “Tiefer See”
- For the conservation of the habitat of endangered animal and plant species of the
mesotrophic alkali clear-water lake.
37. Total reservation No. 25 “Breitefenn”
- For the conservation and natural development of the old oak stock. The development of the
oaks under the conditions of a continentally-influenced macroclimate into a climax
community should be subject to further investigation.
38. Total reservation No. 26 “Pimpinellenberg”
- For the conservation and promotion of the habitats of endangered animal and plant
habitats, especially the plants extra-zonal, steppe-similar continental dry grasses.
- On scientific grounds
39. NCA No. 27 “Plagefenn”
- For the conservation and development of the natural habitats of endangered animal and
plant species, especially the communities of various valuable moor types, water bodies and
forest communities.
40. Total reservation No. 27 a
This comprises the large and small Plagesee with their accretion zones and variety of moor
types. The natural development of this area should be subject to investigation.
41. NCA No. 28 “Niederoderbruch”
- For the conservation of natural habitats of endangered animal and plant species of the
diverse lower moor areas of the glacial valley with their variety of landscape elements.
42. NCA No. 29 “Kanonen and Schloßberg, Schäfergrund”
- For the conservation and promotion of the natural habitats of endangered animal and plant
species, especially the communities of the dry grasses in the two areas.
