Venner Moor, Nature reserve in Ostercappeln, Germany.

The Venner Moor encompasses 220 hectares of wetland terrain between Venne and Hunteburg, featuring cotton grass, sundew plants, and sphagnum moss species.

The formation of this moorland started 11,500 years ago after the last Ice Age, when meltwater and rainfall created water-saturated conditions.

The walking trail Venner Moorpfad contains multiple information stations that present scientific data about the moor's ecology and development through time.

Visitors can access the nature reserve through designated parking areas near Gasthaus Beinker or reach the location using local bus transportation.

The preservation efforts since 1992 focus on rewetting previously drained areas, enabling indigenous plant species to reclaim their natural habitat.
