The Blitzenreuter Lake District has been known as an ecologically valuable area for many years. As early as 1924, the central raised bog core and its non-peat-drained surroundings were protected as a protected forest. In 1937, other parts of the area were designated as a nature reserve (Dornacher Ried with Häckler Ried, Häcklerweiher and Buchsee). In 1939, the Schreckensee was added, and in 1971 the Vorsee and Wegenried were added. Source: https://www.zwischenschussenundseen.de/index.php?id=15
