Wind cut in Markgräflerland: local council reduces wind power areas!

Something is happening in the Markgräfler Land when it comes to wind energy. The Bad Bellingen local council recently made adjustments to the Eichwald-Kreisberg priority area. This area, which extends picturesquely south of the Bamlacher Golf Resort towards Blansingen, should be reconsidered taking into account the comments of the citizens. The area in the northern area will be reduced in order to increase the precautionary distance to the popular Luginsland campsite, as reported by [verlagshaus-jaumann.de](https://www.verlagshaus-jaumann.de/content.windenergie-im-markgraeflerland-windkraft-flaechen- Werden-gewinnt.125a29e8-d10b-4af9-b1c2-b00af6aa708d.html).

Mayor Carsten Vogelpohl has already expressed concerns that the distances to the campsite are not sufficient. These are to be increased to at least 750 meters in the future, which would result in a reduction in the priority area by at least seven hectares. The campsite is not only a popular destination for holidaymakers, but also an important point of contact for the local economy, which is why long-term development opportunities must be safeguarded.

About the Luginsland campsite

The Luginsland campsite, idyllically located in the southern Black Forest, is open all year round for campers and caravanners. Visitors can look forward to spacious pitches, some with wonderful views of the Rhine Valley and the Vosges. The place therefore meets several criteria for a perfect family vacation. After all, in addition to a heated pool, there are also numerous leisure activities such as tennis, golf and beach volleyball, which are equally exciting for young and old, is how pincamp.de describes the advantages of the course.

Finally, the health center in Bamlach with its thermal bath also offers pure relaxation after an active day. Whether in the restaurant with a sun terrace or at an experience for the children, such as pony riding - everyone will be happy here. Regardless of whether you are a sports enthusiast or someone looking for peace and quiet, the place has something to offer for everyone.

Wind power and environmental impacts

But the expansion of wind power also brings with it challenges. The Black Forest region has focused heavily on renewable energies in recent years, which is not without controversy. windkraftgegner-schwarzwald.de addresses the fact that wind turbines contribute to energy production, but can also bring about changes in the landscape and influence the flora and fauna. In particular, noise pollution from rotor blades is often considered problematic as it can affect the well-being of residents.

The necessary careful planning and environmental impact assessments are essential to minimize the negative impact on wildlife and the environment. A balance must be found between the possibilities for using renewable energies and protecting the cultural and landscape values ​​of the Black Forest.

In conclusion, it can be said that further discussions with landowners are already being planned and Mayor Vogelpohl is positive that the tender can take place in the near future. The public hearing, which will take place from June 27th to July 31st, offers all citizens, associations and initiatives the opportunity to submit their statements. It remains to be seen what the implementation of the wind power projects will look like and what further discussions will be initiated in the community.
