Descripción

The Europaschutzgebiet Untere Traun surrounding the Schacherteich pond comprises riparian forest, still waters, reedbeds, and open meadow areas. This diverse landscape provides habitat for numerous breeding, resting, and migratory birds and is among the best birdwatching areas in Upper Austria's central region.

Waterfowl such as ducks, grebes, and coots can regularly be observed at the Schacherteich pond. Carricero Común, Escribano Palustre, and sometimes even Carricero Tordal inhabit the reedbeds. The riparian forests provide habitat for Pico Picapinos, Pico Mediano, Oropéndola Europea, Curruca Capirotada, and various tit species. During migration, Garza Real, Garceta Grande, Cormorán Grande, and various waders frequently appear on the shallow banks. Birds of prey such as Busardo ratonero, Cernícalo vulgar, and occasionally Aguilucho Lagunero Occidental can be seen over the meadows and along the Traun River.

The area is easily accessible and particularly well-suited for quiet observation by the water, as well as during migration periods in spring and autumn.

Europaschutzgebiet Untere Traun is located south of the town of lie between Sipbachzell and north of the village of Mairdorf. There is a parking lot right next to the area, from which the ponds can be reached on foot in just a few minutes. Press P on the map for directions to the parking lot. There is also a bus stop nearby, making the area easily accessible by public transport.

The area can be easily explored on foot via level paths around the ponds and through the riparian forest. The walk around the Schacherteich pond is about 2 km. In some places, narrow trails lead along the waterways and through the wooded areas, offering excellent birdwatching opportunities. Cycling is possible, but walking is the most effective way to observe birds.
