    Tips

    June 10, 2024

    The Schirlheide nature reserve reveals what large parts of the Münsterland region looked like 200 years ago. Back then, the heathland was a product of how people used the land: pastoral farming, agriculture, and the clearing of forests in their former form created this barren-looking landscape. The Schirlheide was artificially created, but gradually became colonized by typical (and sometimes rare) heathland species. The great crested newt, sand lizard, peat mosses, and marsh clubmoss all find an ideal habitat here. Heathland creatures are often well adapted to drought and nutrient-poor habitats. The heathland is regularly grazed by goats and sheep, thus maintaining its natural habitat.
