    Little info from the internet:

    Hollerland originally referred to a cultural landscape in the north and east of Bremen that was reclaimed by Dutch settlers in the 12th century (the so-called “Holler colonization”). The historical Goh Hollerland also included today's Bremen districts of Horn-Lehe and Oberneuland as well as parts of the Borgfeld district and the Osterholz district. Due to the creation of extensive suburban settlements, especially since the 1960s, only remnants of the original cultural landscape reclaimed by the Dutch remain. Today only the part located in the Horn-Lehe district and designated as a nature reserve is called Hollerland.

      The Western Hollerland is a nature reserve in Bremen that offers a fascinating mix of cultural and natural history. Originally reclaimed by Dutch settlers in the 12th century, the area has changed significantly over the centuries. Today it covers an area of 293 hectares and is known for its diverse flora and fauna, which are preserved through intensive protection measures.

      A particular highlight of the Western Hollerland is the varied landscape, which is ideal for hiking and cycling. The paths lead through open green spaces, wet meadows and along watercourses, which give the area its characteristic charm. A popular route is the Jan Weiners hiking trail, which winds through the reserve and offers wonderful views of the surrounding nature.

      Despite its proximity to the A27 motorway, the Hollerland offers quiet and idyllic walks, especially along the Kuhgrabenweg. The area is an important refuge for numerous animal and plant species, and there are well-signposted trails that lead nature lovers through this diverse landscape.
