Wonderful view of the Esterweger Dose. The protected area (since December 2005) high moorland is the remainder of a once huge bog, which was divided into several sub-areas.

For the bird watchers among you: In the Esterweger can is the last breeding occurrence of the golden plover in Central Europe.

Especially recommended before or after the visit to the memorial site Esterwegen, to be able to empathize with what it means to be brutally enslaved and murdered as a persecutor of National Socialism by handwork for cultivation purposes in the bogs of the Emslands. One must, however, be able to overcome the impression of the idyll of nature.

The viewing point is easy to reach by bike. You can easily push past the entrance gate on the B 401 and then cycle along the paved moor path to the viewing point. The view of the 4,500 hectares with the 8 towers of the naval radio station in the background is very impressive. Don't forget your binoculars. It's worth it 👍
