Fauler See/Markendorfer Wald

Fauler See/Markendorfer Wald is a protected nature reserve in the German state of Brandenburg, within the city limits of Frankfurt (Oder). Designated in late 2002 under the official safeguarding order of 20 December 2002, the reserve is officially listed as a Naturschutzgebiet, Germany's strictest category of nature protection, with a registry code of 1526 and an area of roughly 171 hectares. The reserve's defining feature is the Fauler See, a small lake set within a surrounding forested landscape, the so-called Markendorfer Wald. The protected area lies southwest of the central city of Frankfurt (Oder), at the northeastern edge of the Markendorf district, and forms part of a network of nature reserves that shape the outskirts of the city. Although modest in size, the area is significant within the regional context of Brandenburg because it integrates lake habitat with woodland ecosystems on the urban fringe. Its accessibility from nearby federal highways and its proximity to a sizable city make it an example of how small-scale nature reserves can serve as refuges for local biodiversity within otherwise heavily used landscapes.

Distance methodology

Geographic measurements, not driving distances

How nearby park distances are calculated

Distances use park boundaries whenever the available geometry allows it. When one or both boundaries are missing, the mapped park locations provide a clearly labelled estimate. Every value represents straight-line geographic separation and does not use roads or routing.

Boundary distance

Calculated between the nearest points of both park boundaries.

Location-to-boundary estimate

Estimated from one mapped park location to the nearest boundary of the other park.

Mapped-location estimate

Estimated between the mapped locations of both parks.
