Peat Extraction Area in Goldenstedter Moor

The Goldenstedter Moor was declared a nature reserve in 1984 as part of the Lower Saxony moor protection program. For a transitional period, cultural areas may continue to be managed in accordance with the contract, taking into account nature conservation issues. At the same time, already uncultivated areas have been rewetted. After the peat mining permits have expired, the Goldenstedter Moor is to be maintained or developed as a survival space for typical high moor communities.

For nature conservation reasons, moorland train rides are not possible from November to February inclusive.
Depending on the weather conditions, you can drive again from March.
From April, the rides will take place again regularly on Saturdays and Sundays at 3 p.m.
