웨스테론펠트‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

From the "Wildes Moor" viewing hill, a sweeping view opens up over the almost treeless raised moor and green landscape, interspersed with renaturalized bodies of water. The atmosphere is particularly mystical in the morning with ground mist and the rising sun. A circular trail allows you to experience the unique flora and fauna: patches of cotton grass and sphagnum moss, bracken, and moor grass alternate, providing habitat for approximately 50 breeding bird species and various dragonflies and grasshoppers.

Beautiful hike in August when the heather is in bloom.

Beautiful in August!

From the slightly elevated viewing platform, the Fockbek Moor and its inhabitants can be discovered.

The view from the observation windows of the Fockbek Moor is significantly restricted in late summer due to vegetation. Be sure to take binoculars with you.

Just enjoy and do nothing

What is striking is the massive occurrence of reeds in the wide bank zone.

The Sorgwohlder inland dunes near Owschlag have been a nature reserve along the Sorge lowlands since 1936. It extends from Sorgwohld in a northeasterly direction. The dunes were formed in the late and post-glacial periods around 12,000 years ago. A constant ice wind blew the sand from the erosion edges, created by meltwater that had severely eroded the Owschlager Sander in Sorgetal, into mighty dunes. Today it can be assumed that parts of the Sorgwohlde inland dunes have been almost devoid of vegetation since the Ice Age. Humans have cultivated this landscape through grazing and farming since around 1000 AD. fundamentally shaped. The farmers in the sandy areas used the soil removed by pests to litter the stables and then fertilize their one-sidedly cultivated fields. Plowing and removing heather and other ground litter removed nutrients from the soil. This meant that the heather was always able to sprout new crops and germinate its sun-loving seeds better. The Ochsenweg also had an influence on the area. At Sorgwohld he crossed the worry. Large storage areas had to be available at such water points. The cattle kept churning up the ground.
