The waterlogged areas at the Bagbander Tief near the mouth of the Sautel Canal provide a habitat for numerous animal and plant species thanks to their rich structural diversity. In addition to the water, you'll find tall herbaceous vegetation, reed beds, and woody vegetation, which provide breeding and feeding habitats for rare species such as the wood sandpiper, the kingfisher, and the banded demoiselle.

The Stapeler Moor, with its nearly 2-kilometer-long peatland discovery trail, is definitely worth a visit. When we were there, we were alone, and the trail was easily navigable by bicycle. Until 1964, the peat extracted here was used to heat the power plant in Wiesmoor. With the end of the power plant era, peat extraction in Uplengen continued and was primarily used in horticulture. Extraction finally ceased in 1998. The Stapeler Moor is now a strictly protected nature reserve and is undergoing extensive renaturalization. The extracted peat areas have been rewetted, and rushes and sphagnum mosses are once again thriving in the former cuttings. It will take centuries for a fully intact moor to re-emerge. Along the peatland discovery trail, information panels provide comprehensive information about the moor and its flora and fauna. It was a shame that the observation tower was closed; it's probably showing its age and is in a state of disrepair. ... Update March 2026: The dilapidated viewing platform has been demolished and a new observation tower has been built. I think it will be opened soon.

The Neudorfer Moor is a nature reserve in the Lower Saxony municipality of Uplengen in the Leer district. The nature reserve, designated NSG WE 114, is 350 hectares in size. The area has been a nature reserve since October 8, 1983. The responsible lower nature conservation authority is the Leer district. The nature reserve is located in the north of the municipality of Uplengen on the border with the municipality of Wiesmoor. The area protects the remains of a raised bog which, like the nature reserves of Lengener Meer, Stapeler Moor, Spolsener Moor and Herrenmoor a few kilometers further east, is one of the formerly extensive East Frisian central moors. The moor, where peat mining used to take place, is being renaturalized. A small part of the nature reserve is used as agricultural grassland. The area is drained via the Riesmeerschloot and the Nordgeorgsfehnkanal to the Jümme. There is a viewing platform in the east of the nature reserve.

A nice opportunity for a break on the benches and from the tower you have a super beautiful view of the nature reserve

A great view over the depression from the bridge

Here you can learn a lot about the moor

The ideal destination for cyclists, hikers and nature lovers. The adventure trail near Uplengen was completed at the end of 2008. This circular hiking trail with a viewing tower and a replica of an ancient plank path that led through the moor thousands of years ago gives visitors an idea of how the impassable moor was crossed back then. You can also take a break in the middle of the untouched nature or find out information about the flora and fauna on several of the information boards set up there. The trail is 1.6 km long. There is enough parking space.
