With the beginning of February, the breeding season of many bird species in the Palatinate Forest is also approaching. From February 1st and until June 30, 2025, several rock -rich areas in this region will be blocked to protect breeding birds such as the wandering falcon, UHU and Kolkraben.

protective measures are of great importance, since acoustic and visual disorders can endanger reproduction during the breeding season. The Kolkrabe is particularly protected, while the Wanderfalke and Uhu are considered strictly protected species according to the Federal Nature Conservation Act. The district councilors Dietmar Seefeldt and Susanne Ganster appeal to the population of taking into account the flora and fauna.

alternative excursion destinations

Despite the closures, there are numerous other rocks in the Palatinate Forest, which are not affected and can serve as an alternative excursion destinations. The association "Pfälzer Klimterer e.V." plans to regularly update information about the rock closures to offer interested transparent information.

In addition, around 120 reports about the hiking falcons, which are distributed throughout the year, have been recorded in the Rhineland-Palatinate with a slight focus in May and June. There are exciting observation options even in winter in suitable places, such as on a rock wall over the Palatinate Museum for Natural History in Bad Dürkheim.

The watchful immigration of hiking falcons into the region and the upcoming closures illustrate the commitment to protect the natural diversity in the Palatinate Forest. Further information on this topic can also be found on Rheinpfalz .
