August 10, 2025, Nordoer Heide Heathland

The Nordoe Inland Dunes are now a 407-hectare nature reserve and part of the National Natural Heritage. The area is characterized by a mix of diverse habitats: open sandy areas, heathlands, and wetlands. There are both pine-covered inland dunes and scrub-like oak woodlands. The Nordoe Inland Dunes are an important refuge for rare and endangered animal and plant species. The ecosystem depends on the nutrient-poor conditions and open landscape. To maintain these conditions, the area is now managed through extensive grazing with Galloways, Highland cattle, and Exmoor ponies.

The wetland is located east of the municipality of Lägerdorf and is best reached via the municipality of Rethwisch. There is a 🅿️ parking lot there, which is also popular with 🛶 water hikers. A railway along the former Breitenburg shipping canal takes you to the 🌱North wetland in the municipality of Rethwisch, which is looked after and maintained by the local biotope association. Here, a 🔄 circular hiking trail invites you to enjoy nature.

starting point. The area or rather the display boards etc. will probably no longer be maintained. But that is also not necessary. The area is beautiful for both short and long walks.
