Steigerwald Forest in Germany

On 8 March 1988 the Bavarian State Ministry for State Development and the Environment designated an area of 1,280 square kilometres (490 sq mi) in North Bavaria, Germany, as the Steigerwald Nature Park. About half the area consists of protected landscapes. The nature park is run by the Steigerwald Tourist Association and Steigerwald Nature Park.

The landscape is characterised by deciduous and pine forests, ponds and vineyards.
