    A man-made Kalkflachmoor in the middle of the drinking water protection area of ​​Augsburg. The project is supervised by Lebensraum Lechtal.

    A beautiful spot - completely surprisingly located in the Siebentischwald - invites you to a small break and exploration tour.

      The shooting range was created in 1886 in the approximately 2.5 kilometers from the village center of Meringerau or Siebenbrunn remote forest part.
      During Emperor's and King's reigns, during the Nazi era and after the Second World War, soldiers from the Augsburg garrison marched or drove to this almost 66-hectare area, which is marked as a "military shooting range" in some old maps as a restricted area. Until 1918, the General Command of the I. Army Corps was in charge here. It belonged until then to the royal Bavarian "military area".

        Super nice section with the moor. It should be noted, however, that especially after prolonged rain, and the paths may be slightly flooded
