Birds in the cultural landscape of Brentjong

Excursion / Guided tour
Next date / period: 15.04.2026 06:50 to 09:30

Naturpark Pfyn-Finges - In the rocky steppe and fields around the Brentjong station with its large satellite antennas, the first homecomers from Africa, such as the hoopoe, the bunting fence, the redstart, etc., sing at this time of year.

But also the hibernators are already in breeding mood and advertise loudly for a partner. The attentive nature lover can listen to many bird species, especially in the early morning. Observation is also made easier by the still sparse foliage and some species use the tree skeletons of the forest fire area or the large satellite antennas as singing stations.

The excursion is conducted in German and French
