a nice spot at the end of the northern runway. The boggy forest area reminded me a lot of Sweden.

FHH area "Ohmoor"
The 51-hectare FFH area "Ohmoor" is the remainder of an Atlantic high moor that originally covered around 450 hectares. This had developed over the course of thousands of years in the drainage channel of an ice reservoir. The high moor had a thickness of around 3 meters up until the 19th century raised above the landscape. Drainage, peat cutting and "cultivation", but above all the development and construction of the airport have completely changed the character of the area. Renaturation measures carried out in the 1990s led to the rewetting and re-spreading of plants typical of upland moors, such as cotton grass, rosemary heather, beak reed, cranberry and sundew in the core area of the Ohmoor. Due to its importance as a liver area, the Ohmoor has therefore been included in the European NATURA2000 network. In order to protect the species and habitats, but at the same time to provide certainty about the possibilities and limits of future use, a management plan for the FFH area has been drawn up together with all those affected, such as users, owners, associations, municipalities and interested citizens.

This corner is a bit of a blind spot, so you'll find a small, naturally preserved moorland landscape here. Even with the help of the neighboring Hamburg Airport 😁
