Did you know that the Sauerland Rothaargebirge Nature Park is the second largest nature park in Germany?

The Nuhnewiesen nature reserve is the largest contiguous hay meadow area in the whole of North Rhine-Westphalia. No wonder the whinchat feels so at home here and has adopted the Nuhnewiesen as one of its three main habitats in North Rhine-Westphalia.
