    Although the path is quite narrow, it can be easily done with any touring bike. And it's nice there.

      The term "Möörte" comes from the Dutch/East Frisian language area and means something like moor, morass, swamp, peat bog, swampy swampy land.

        The area of the Gellener Torfmöörte covers approx. 120 ha. It used to belong to the 6000 ha Ipweger Moor, which was cultivated from 1900 onwards. The low moor with remaining high moor areas is characterized by moor grassland, ponds, peat cuts, forest and moor heaths. The area is known for its abundance of dragonfly species and swamp calla, which displays large white bracts from May to July. A moor nature trail offers a small tour of the area. Friends of the bird world can visit the Gellener Torfmöörte u. a. Experience tree pipits, stonechats and various species of warblers.
