Tips

Hiking

The sky moor: enchanted birch forests, sparkling ponds, deep swamps and cotton grass. On the adventurous path through the moor you will discover partly black-brown but mostly blue peat. Here ducks and gray geese rest and breed. Especially on the edge of the river there is a spectacle of interesting vegetation.

Hiking

According to a 1919 contract, peat extraction, which began around 1780, was to continue until the moor had completely disappeared. However, extraction was discontinued in 2018. The gradual renaturation and rewetting of the Himmelmoor had already begun. The "Himmelmoor Friends' Association" was founded in December 2005.

Hiking

3 worthwhile viewing platforms are located directly on the moor nature trail. On a walk you pass them almost automatically. Thanks to the benches, they are also very suitable for a short hiking break.
