Schauwiese Ablass

The meadows near the Ablass farmhouse are a mosaic of different types of meadow. The spectrum ranges from mountain mowing meadows to wet meadows and stands of moor grass. The vegetation, which is very species-rich with almost 80 plant species, is dominated by moor grass, wood sedge and red fescue. The abundance of flowers is particularly striking when the broad-leaved orchid is in bloom at the end of May.
Such areas have become very rare and are of the highest conservation value.

Here you will find the following special plant species:

• Broad-leaved orchid
  (Dactylorhiza majalis)
  Orchid plant
  Mid/end of May to mid-June
• Star narcissus
  (Narcissus radiiflorus)
  Daffodil plant
  Mid/end of May to mid-June
