Aper Tief The Aper Tief is a natural river in the municipality of Apen. Coming from the east, it flows through the farming communities of Hengstforde, Vreschen Bokel and Holtgast, from where it merges into the Jümme. Two retention areas were created along the river, which have become a fantastic nature reserve. The connection of the Aper Tief with the Jümme, Leda and Ems as far as the North Sea means that the tides are noticeable in this area with a tidal range of 60 to 120 cm. While hiking or cycling, discover the freshwater mudflats in Hengstforde and the floodplain landscape in Holtgast with its diverse birdlife. Anglers will also find excellent conditions here.

Due to the topographical conditions, most of the pumping stations are located in the northwestern part of the Ammerländer Wasseracht association area.

Dänikhorster Moor The Dänikhorster Moor is a former nature reserve in the Lower Saxony communities of Bad Zwischenahn and Edewecht in the Ammerland district. The nature reserve, designated NSG WE 181, was 91 hectares in size. It was fully part of the FFH area "Fintlandsmoor und Dänikhorster Moor". The area has been under nature protection since October 24, 1987. In June 2017, it opened up in the newly designated "Fintlandsmoor und Dänikhorster Moor" nature reserve. The district of Ammerland was responsible for the lower nature conservation authority. The area is southwest of Bad Zwischenahn and northwest of Edewecht. It consists of two uncultivated remains of raised bogs. The high moor lies on the edge of the Ammerländer Geest within the Hunte-Leda moor lowland. The northern part drains via ditches to the Ollenbäke, which flows into the Große Süderbäke near Apen. In Apen this becomes Aper Tief. The southern part drains via ditches to the floodplain.

The Aper Tief is a small river in the Lower Saxony municipalities of Apen in the district of Ammerland and Detern in the joint municipality of Jümme in the district of Leer.

You can rest well at the tower and have a beautiful view of the Aper-Tief.

Right on the roadside we were surprised by this beautiful nature.

The nature reserve with the designation NSG WE 221 is 75 hectares in size. It has been under nature protection since December 17, 1994. The responsible lower nature conservation authority is the Ammerland district. The nature reserve is located south of the Aper Tief between the towns of Apen and Augustfehn in the municipality of Apen in the Ammerland district. It is bordered to the east by the district road 120 and to the west by the Norderloher Canal. In the south of the nature reserve is the dike of the Aper Tief, which was moved from the bank of the Tief to a road running south of it in 2005. Before the dike line was moved back, there were grassland and wet meadows here, which were crossed by oxbows of the Aper Tief. The grassland was mainly used for mowing. After the dike line was moved back, the areas between the Aper Tief and the dike are subject to the natural river dynamics and are partially flooded at high tide. This creates a river floodplain landscape with river mudflats, floodplain forests and wet biotopes. The areas also serve as flood protection. Reed beds, including cattails, water swaths, reed canary grass and sedge marshes, are spreading on the waterlogged areas. The nature reserve is home to laurel willow, prostrate St. John's wort, marsh marigold, greater burnet, water ragwort, water sedge, needle marsh rush, bristly marsh rush and thread rush, among others. The nature reserve is home to numerous bird species, including black-tailed godwit, common snipe and redshank. The nature reserve is also an important habitat for various insects, including ground beetles and dragonflies. In the south of the nature reserve there are two viewing platforms accessible from the road along the dyke, which can be used for nature observation. Another viewing point is located on a pumping station on the north bank of the Aper Tief near Augustfehn.
