Procedure details
Description
The Bavarian State Ministry for the Environment and Consumer Protection also grants subsidies for measures for nature-friendly recreation inside and outside nature parks.
Measures in accordance with the Landscape Conservation and Nature Park Guidelines (LNPR) serve to
- Conserve and develop nature and the landscape as the basis of human life, the environment and recreational areas,
- secure or re-create habitats for endangered or threatened animal and plant species,
- to achieve the purpose pursued by the protection of areas and individual elements of nature,
- to make the local nature and landscape accessible to the population in a nature-friendly manner and to communicate their ecological value,
- to realize nature conservation and landscape management objectives contained in plans in accordance with Art. 4 of the Bavarian Nature Conservation Act (BayNatSchG),
- to develop, preserve and maintain a state-wide biotope network,
- to contribute to the protection and development of the European ecological network Natura 2000.
Recreational measures serve to maintain and develop nature-compatible recreational uses on the basis of the maintenance and development plans.
Beneficiaries
- Local authorities and their associations,
- Landscape conservation associations as well as associations and organizations dedicated to nature conservation and landscape conservation in accordance with their statutes,
- Owners or holders of the land earmarked for measures, nature park authorities

Supplement: Regierung von Oberfranken
In order to enable improved control and a more targeted use of funds, the available funding in 2025 will be distributed as part of a prioritization process. In order to be considered, funding applications must be received by the lower nature conservation authorities (uNB) by 29.04.2025 at the latest. The projects submitted are expected to be released and approved from 06.06.2025. When distributing the budget funds, particular attention will be paid to safeguarding nature conservation structures. Priority will be given to projects that explicitly serve to implement legal obligations or the goals set out in the coalition agreement of the governing coalition. These include projects for the implementation of the Bavarian Orchard Pact, moorland protection, species protection and the expansion and maintenance of the biotope network. However, there are also projects that cannot be considered in the current process. These include multi-year projects, projects involving large-scale scrub clearance and clearing, the creation and maintenance of hedges and copses, land purchases outside of moors and some projects in the area of nature park promotion. The funds disbursed via the procedure cannot be paid out until spring 2026 at the earliest.
For more detailed information, please contact the relevant government and lower nature conservation authorities.
