Alte Röder Nature Reserve

The Alte Röder Nature Reserve (German: Naturschutzgebiet Alte Röder bei Prieschka) lies on the left bank of the Black Elster river between the village of Prieschka in the municipality of Bad Liebenwerda and the village of Würdenhain which belongs to Röderland.

It is located within the Lower Lusatian Heath Nature Park (Naturpark Niederlausitzer Heidelandschaft), which covers an area of 484 km².

One of its main conservation aims is the preservation and development of this area as a habitat for the Elbe Beaver and other endangered species.

The area of the old confluence of the Alte Röder with the Black Elster is known as the Gänsewinkel ("Goose Corner").

It is located northeast of Prieschka in the immediate vicinity of the point where the Landesstraße 593 crosses the Black Elster.
