Beschrijving
Wasserscheide and its surrounding mountain forests and Alpine meadows are located within the Gantrisch/Gurnigel IBA. The area is easily accessible by car and public transport. There are some amenities (hotel, restaurant) and a network of well-marked hiking paths. The area is home to some Alpine species such as Citroensijs , Steenarend , Korhoen , Rotskruiper , Drieteenspecht , Alpensneeuwhoen , and Rode Rotslijster. In recent years, in summer, observations of vultures, in particular Vale Gier have become more common.
Wasserscheide is also one of the Swiss hot spots for the observation of autumn migration (roughly between 15 August and 15 October). During late summer considerable passage of Zwarte Wouw and Wespendief can occur. This is followed in late August / early September by migration of Bijeneter. September sees good passage of Sperwer , Visarend and Bruine Kiekendief , and some insectivorous passerines stopping over, including Bonte Vliegenvanger , Gekraagde Roodstaart , Paapje. October is the month of mass migration of passerines including Vink , Appelvink and Graspieper.
