In the Wesuweer Moor, the numerous ditches and narrow canals immediately catch the eye. They date back to the time of peat extraction, when the moor was extensively crisscrossed for drainage. Today, many of these waterways serve rewetting purposes: they keep the water level stable and promote the natural regeneration of the moorland. Sphagnum mosses, sedges, and cotton grasses are re-establishing themselves along their banks. At the same time, the still waters provide valuable refuges for dragonflies, frogs, and waterfowl.
