    The nature reserve located on the plateau between Sistig and Krekel is a supraregional important heather and orchid location with a unique biodiversity. In contrast to the juniper heather, you will find orchids here, which tend to prefer slightly more humid locations.

      Countless orchids in bloom can now be found on the borst grass meadows. Just wonderful. However, a large number of other summer flowers have also settled.

        The Sistig-Krekeler Heide is a beautiful and worthwhile place for hikers and nature lovers at any time of the year.
