Hiking

Büsnauer Wiesental Nature Reserve: The meadows in the Büsnauer Wiesental are only a last remnant of what was once a much more extensive meadow landscape. Where the Max Planck Institutes now stand, the Büsnauer Hof state domain was formerly used as meadows, horse and sheep pastures, and fields. In 1837, all buildings were demolished. Only the former cheese dairy remained as a sheep barn until it, too, had to make way for the expansion of Büsnauer Straße in the 1950s. Today, the nature reserve is severely restricted by buildings and intensively used farmland.

Hiking

The Büsnau meadow valley is a last remaining piece of nature on the outskirts of the city. It was designated a nature reserve as early as 1989. The area is characterized by meadows, streams, ponds, reeds, and hedgerows. At least 300 plant species and over 150 bird species have been recorded within the protected area.

Very beautiful nature reserve, idyllically situated between flower meadows and lakes. Not far from the Bärensee, also easy to reach by public transport from the S-Bahn University.
