Die Lucie, Nature reserve in Trebel and Lüchow, Germany.
Description
Die Lucie is a nature reserve located between Trebel and Lüchow in Lower Saxony, featuring wetlands, lakes, and reed beds. The area is crossed by drainage ditches and shows different stages of bog regeneration with open water surfaces and dense vegetation growth.
History
Die Lucie was protected as a reserve in 1951 when West Germany began safeguarding important wetland areas. The site was previously shaped by peat extraction, which today creates a variety of different habitat types across the landscape.
Culture
The reserve draws birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts who come to observe herons, cranes, and uncommon duck species in their habitats. Visitors move quietly along the few pathways and maintain distance to avoid disturbing wildlife.
Practical
The nature reserve is generally open to visitors, though research activities require permission from local authorities. Spring and autumn offer the best conditions for visits, when many bird species migrate and viewing opportunities are ideal.
Did you know?
Former peat extraction pits have naturally transformed into lakes and marshes, where rare dragonfly species now thrive. These insects serve as sensitive indicators of water quality and reveal how the ecosystem has regenerated over time.
