National Park - No rockets and firecrackers in the Bavarian Forest
The Bavarian Forest National Park Authority has asked visitors to refrain from using fireworks in the national park on New Year's Eve - to protect the animals. The Bavarian Forest around the Falkenstein, Rachel and Lusen mountains is a popular place to celebrate the turn of the year. However, rockets and firecrackers put many animal species under stress.
Many species that are sensitive to disturbance, such as the endangered capercaillie, live at high altitudes around the mountain peaks in particular. According to the park administration, the light and loud bangs of fireworks cause the birds to flee in panic. As capercaillie quickly lose energy at low temperatures, this is often the death sentence for the animals.
The national park administration therefore asks park visitors and residents to show consideration for nature - and also to dispose of their New Year's Eve waste.

The prohibition against fireworks in the Bavarian Forest National Park extends to all forms of explosive devices, including rockets and firecrackers. During New Year's Eve celebrations, Bavarians in LOWER BAVARIA often flock to the Bavarian Forest, the Turn of the year being a significant annual event in Falkenstein, Rachel, and Lusen. Nevertheless, the noise and light of fireworks can be detrimental to various animal species in the area, particularly those residing at high altitudes like the endangered capercaillie. The park administration urges visitors and locals to renounce the use of fireworks to ensure the well-being of these animals, as the sudden stress can lead to their demise due to rapid energy loss at low temperatures. Furthermore, responsible waste disposal is also encouraged by the park administration to maintain the natural beauty and harmony of Bavarian Forest National Park.
