The Reinzelbachtal nature reserve preserves a valuable habitat for numerous rare and endangered species. It protects plants such as Water Avens, Great Horsetail, and Bearwort, which are on the Red List in North Rhine-Westphalia. The endangered Marbled White butterfly also finds an important refuge here. The area is characterized by a structurally rich biotope complex, encompassing near-natural water sections with tall herb communities and riparian woodlands.
