Moor adventure trail Moor adventure trail in Ahlenmoor If you want to walk through the moor with dry feet, you can only do so on wooden plank paths. Even people from the Stone Age knew this, and they used this method to make their way through dangerous moorland. The moor adventure trail in Ahlenmoor is based on this millennia-old tradition. The circular trail leads around two kilometers through a varied natural landscape on wooden plank paths and paths made of wood chips. The starting point is a large information board opposite the Flögeln campsite. You walk through various landscapes between birch trees, moor grass, blueberries and cotton grass. At 14 stations you will receive information about the flora and fauna of the moor. Fold-down boards and pictures to look at give an impression of the special nature of the natural area and why it is so endangered. Drainage, peat extraction, agriculture and settlement have led to a sharp decline in raised bogs. The remaining remnants - which also include the Ahlenmoor - are now heavily protected. Experience how powerful the moor is - and how little peat moss grows in a year. Discover rare animal and plant species. The moor adventure trail is a destination for the whole family. The hiking trail is freely accessible all year round. (Source: https://www.ahlenmoor.de/erlebniswege/moorerlebnispfad)
