Special Regulations and a Code of Conduct

To protect the site in the long term and reconcile nature conservation with human activities, special regulations have been put in place in Rohrschollen Island Nature Reserve.

MOTOR VEHICLE TRAFFIC PROHIBITED

A tranquil environment is vital for the wildlife to reproduce. Pollution, noise and soil degradation are all harmful to the flora, fauna and other users of the site.

Stay on the pathway

For your personal safety and to maintain the tranquility of the site, keep to the authorized paths only.

dogs prohibited/TO BE KEPT ON A LEASH

The wildlife is sensitive to the presence of dogs and perceive our four-legged friends as predators. Please keep dogs outside the Rohschollen Island nature reserve’s protected area.

In Neuhof-Illkirch Forest, please keep dogs on a leash to preserve the tranquility of the site.

FIRE, CAMPING, NOISE AND GARBAGE PROHIBITED

To preserve the natural beauty and integrity of the site, dumping waste or pollutants of any kind is strictly prohibited.

plants and FLOWER PICKING PROHIBITED

The plants, flowers, minerals and fossils belong to the countryside—do not damage or remove any natural feature or resource. Be they protected, rare or common, it is important to pass on every element of our natural heritage to future generations so they can be admired by everyone for many years to come.
