Other Site Characteristics

Kullamäe loodusala asub Viljandimaal ja on loodud Kullamäe liivakivipaljandi ja seal asuvate koobaste kaitseks. Tegemist on esindusliku Devoni liivakivipaljandiga Tarvastu jõe kaldal koos allikate ja okasmetsadega.

4.2 Quality and importance

Kullamäe loodusalale jäävad elupaigatüübid liivakivipaljandid (8220) ning okasmetsad oosidel ja moreenikuhjatistel (sürjametsad – 9060) on hea ning arvestatava esinduslikkuse ning looduskaitselise seisundiga.Kullamäe maastikukaitsealaKullamäe maastikukaitseala asub Viljandimaal Tarvastu vallas. Kaitseala loodi 1964. aastal Tarvastu jõe ääres oleva Kullamäe liivakivipaljandi kaitseks. 1998. aastal kaitseala veidi laiendati, et tõhusamalt kaitsta paljandit, seal asuvaid koopaid ning neid ümbritsevat maastiku. Jõeäärne paljand on kuni 12 m kõrgune ja selles on kolm koopaava, mis viivad kahte koopasse. Suurima koopaava laius on 2,5 m ja kõrgus 2,4 m. Kaitseala pindala on 5,4 ha.
