Auried Nature Reserve
Highlight • Natural
As a former gravel mining area, this area was acquired by Pro Natura.
One of the largest tree frog populations in Switzerland has its home in the Auried. The frog species, which has become very rare today, appreciates the well-sunlit waters in the former gravel mining area as spawning grounds. The wet meadows with individual trees serve as a summer habitat. But also other amphibians, waders, dragonflies and other invertebrates feel completely at home in the structurally rich landscape.
The area is considered a resting and breeding area for an enormous number of birds.
To ensure that this remains the case in the future, Pro Natura is grazing Scottish highland cattle against bushes. In addition, the areas are kept open with additional maintenance measures.
