    The Geestmoor nature reserve lies southeast of Meppen in the Emsland district. This area, covering approximately 300 hectares, originated after the last Ice Age from peat bogs nestled between the sandy ridges of the Geest. Today, the Geestmoor enjoys special protection due to its habitat of rare animal and plant species such as sundew, crane, and moor frog. Restoration measures have promoted rewetting and supported the natural development of the moor.
