Fröruper Berge Nature Reserve

The Frörup Mountains have a wide range of changing natural areas.
Here you can find the rewetted Budschi Moor, dry heath areas on its edge, terminal moraine hills lined with beech and oak trees, the Ihlsee stream lowlands, the Treßsee lowlands and the areas along the Treene with the Treenetal.
This beautiful landscape was created during the Vistula Ice Age around 12,000 years ago, in which the glaciers pushed up large amounts of material to form the so-called "compressive moraines". The “trademark” of the Frörup mountains are the wooded moraine hilltops. Here you feel like you have been transported to a low mountain range. Sometimes it goes up and down quite a bit.
The Budschi Moor was used for peat extraction for a long time, but is now waterlogged again and can now develop into a moorland undisturbed. Here on Budschi Moor, a former stone cellar of a residential building was converted into a bat roost. The former Jordhui Moor is now a wide area of heath. The areas are kept open by a herd of migratory sheep so that they do not become overgrown.
The enormous importance of this landscape, which is worthy of protection, is underlined by the EU's designation of large areas as fauna-flora-habitat areas (FFH), and since 2015 an area of 1,674 hectares has been designated as one of the largest NSGes in the country. The NSG is looked after by the Obere Treene Landschaft nature conservation association. A variety of plant, fungi and animal species are native here, including the rare, endangered pasqueflower, various species of orchids, sand lizards and black woodpeckers.
Because of its varied landscape in a small area, this area also has great recreational value and is therefore very popular.

The NSG Fröruper Berge was expelled as early as 1936. Today it is part of the higher-level LSG Obere Treenelandschaft.
Here lies the Budschimoor, a reforested raised moor in an Ice Age moraine landscape.

The nature reserve has existed since 1936.[1] It is located south-east of the district of Frörup and is managed as part of the large-scale nature conservation project Obere Treenelandschaft. The largely wooded Frörup mountains with their rewetted high moor area, which is called Budschimoor[2] or Butschimoor (Danish: Bushøj Mose)[3], is a moraine landscape from the Ice Age. The push end moraine was created by the most recent ice age (Vistula glaciation). Enormous glacial pressure pushed rocks of coarser sizes, such as gravel to large boulders, and other deposits into a wall.
