アンマーラントの天然記念物・トップ20

🌲✨ シュターマースホップは、ブナとオークの非常に古い樹木が特徴です。森の一部は自然保護区（NSG）に指定されているため、自然はここではほとんど邪魔されずに発展することができます。倒木はそのまま残り、珍しい昆虫や菌類の生息地となり、森にまるで物語のような外観を与えています。

🌲✨ シュターマースホップは、ツヴィッシェンアーナー・メーアの北岸にある、真の自然の宝石であり、最も価値のある森林・自然保護区の一つです。ドライベルゲンとマイヤーハウゼン地区の間に位置し、アマーラントでは他に類を見ない、原始的な雰囲気を提供します。

Aper Tief The Aper Tief is a natural river in the municipality of Apen. Coming from the east, it flows through the farming communities of Hengstforde, Vreschen Bokel and Holtgast, from where it merges into the Jümme. Two retention areas were created along the river, which have become a fantastic nature reserve. The connection of the Aper Tief with the Jümme, Leda and Ems as far as the North Sea means that the tides are noticeable in this area with a tidal range of 60 to 120 cm. While hiking or cycling, discover the freshwater mudflats in Hengstforde and the floodplain landscape in Holtgast with its diverse birdlife. Anglers will also find excellent conditions here.

The Ellernteich is a real curiosity - because this pond was created twice. The Grand Duke of Oldenburg, Peter Friedrich Ludwig, had a park built here in Rastede next to his summer residence. His son and successor, Paul Friedrich August, expanded the park in the style of an English landscape park. In the course of this, the local lowland, which was covered with alders, known in Low German as Ellern, was converted into a fish pond in 1842. How complex the undertaking was can be seen from the fact that the pond was only completed 9 years later, in 1848. When it was completed, a new line of sight was created from the castle across the Ellern and Mühlenteich ponds to the water mill.

Due to the topographical conditions, most of the pumping stations are located in the northwestern part of the Ammerländer Wasseracht association area.

Dänikhorster Moor The Dänikhorster Moor is a former nature reserve in the Lower Saxony communities of Bad Zwischenahn and Edewecht in the Ammerland district. The nature reserve, designated NSG WE 181, was 91 hectares in size. It was fully part of the FFH area "Fintlandsmoor und Dänikhorster Moor". The area has been under nature protection since October 24, 1987. In June 2017, it opened up in the newly designated "Fintlandsmoor und Dänikhorster Moor" nature reserve. The district of Ammerland was responsible for the lower nature conservation authority. The area is southwest of Bad Zwischenahn and northwest of Edewecht. It consists of two uncultivated remains of raised bogs. The high moor lies on the edge of the Ammerländer Geest within the Hunte-Leda moor lowland. The northern part drains via ditches to the Ollenbäke, which flows into the Große Süderbäke near Apen. In Apen this becomes Aper Tief. The southern part drains via ditches to the floodplain.
