A school forest against climate change Just a short detour west of the Raddesee, there is a school forest against climate change. As early as 2013, around 1,000 students from the Hümmling Gymnasium and the Schule am Schloss made the first school forest against climate change by the Zukunft Wald Foundation a reality on an area next to the Raddesee. Oaks, hornbeams, hawthorns and birches were planted in a large-scale campaign. And even today, there are many lessons outside, because the school forest is intended to promote a connection to local nature through the activities.

From the field to the lake Here in the Radde lowlands of Sögel, a large body of still water has been created on agricultural land or coniferous land. Three existing fishing waters that were far from nature and a ditch were also redesigned to be as natural as possible. Instead of the former straight, very steep banks, extensive flat banks with curved shorelines were created. The aim of the water construction was to create an important living, feeding and refuge area for native flora and fauna. In particular, the expansion of the Nordradde, which runs in the immediate vicinity, in the 1960s resulted in the loss of many valuable wetland habitats in the area. Replacement biotopes must therefore be created.

Swedish finds The stone circle may look a bit like an Emsland Stonehenge, but it was actually only built at the beginning of the 21st century. Its components are, however, much older: they are boulders that came to Emsland during the Saale Ice Age (300,000 to 126,000 years ago). Glaciers pushed the stones from Scandinavia to Hümmling. The idea for the boulder garden came from Father Matthäus Bergmann, who rediscovered a boulder in Klöwer in Werpeloh in 2000. He believed that the stone was a prehistoric altar that once stood here on "De hooge Klinken". Although this elevation is only 45 meters high, it occupies a special position in Hümmling due to the magnificent panoramic view.

small lake, just stop and enjoy the peace and quiet
