Holmmoor, Protected area between Hasloh and Quickborn, Germany

The nature reserve extends over 110 hectares, containing thick peat bodies in its core zone and wetlands serving as buffer areas around the perimeter.

The establishment of Holmmoor as a protected nature reserve in May 1994 followed intensive efforts by local conservation groups to preserve its ecological value.

The Naturschutzverein Hasloh/Quickborn association organizes guided nature walks and information sessions to educate visitors about the ecological characteristics of the moor.

The land rises between 22 and 31 meters above sea level, with the Mühlenau spring emerging at the eastern edge near the Autobahn 7.

The reserve harbors specialized plant species adapted to nutrient-poor conditions, including heather, bilberry, and insect-consuming sundew plants.
