The Teverener Heide impresses with a changing picture of heath, moor and forest. Visitors will also find numerous lakes there that were created by the mining of sand and clay in the 20th century. The heath offers a good habitat for many plants and animal species, some of which are rare, including smooth snakes, woodlarks, around 40 species of dragonflies, blue-winged grasshoppers and sundews.
