Flora and fauna in the Oppenweher Moor

The moor is characterized by its vegetation, which is typical of raised bogs. In spring and summer, the moor heath blooms here and rare plants such as the sundew, a carnivorous plant, can also be discovered. Peat mosses grow in the damp areas of the moor, which play a key role in the formation of the moor.

The moor also provides a habitat for various bird species, including cranes, snipes and whinchats. The adder and moor frog are also at home here. For nature enthusiasts, it is an ideal place for birdwatching and nature photography.
