クンマーフェルトの天然記念物・トップ20

Quiet, chilled out place, ideal for a short rest.

The Schnaakenmoor nature reserve is located in the Klövensteen forest district on the western edge of Hamburg in the district of Rissen. The nature reserve also includes areas of the Groten Moor, the Spitzerdorfer Moorflagen and the area between Klövensteenweg, Babenwischweg and Feldweg 83. (Source: Wikipedia)

The Klövensteen has many great hiking trails, these are three of the officially signposted trails.

Visitors can explore Schleswig-Holstein's largest raised bog on a nearly four-kilometer-long nature trail. It leads over soft peat soil, through birch forests, and along a boardwalk. Information boards along the trail provide information about the extraordinary flora and fauna. At three different locations, vantage points offer a beautiful view of the moor lake and the former peat mining areas.

You also regularly cross the tracks of the peat railway when you go for a walk. Incidentally, trips with the Lorenbahn are offered on certain dates. That must be a great experience too.

The third viewing platform is at the northern end of Nulldamm in an area called Kleiner Knust.

The Buttermoor / Butterbargsmoor is the remainder of a former extensive raised bog on the edge of the Klövensteen in the area of the municipalities of Holm and the town of Wedel in the Pinneberg district. After rewetting, peat moss and other typical bog species spread again. Heath grows in somewhat drier areas. In order to preserve the open areas, they are grazed by sheep and goats and the trees are pushed back (the so-called "decussing"). Several paths cross the nature reserve and allow exciting insights into the moor landscape. With a little luck you can spot grass snakes and adders along the way. Cranes have been breeding in the moor since 2012. Information boards explain the special features of the area.

You can relax here in summer. Water lilies are blooming on the pond and the frogs are croaking. A pavilion stands on the edge and invites you to take a break. In winter the frozen pond is good for ice skating.
