Ahlen-Falkenberger Moor, Halemer/Dahlemer See, Nature reserve and wetland ecosystem in Lower Saxony, Germany

The Ahlen-Falkenberger Moor spans across 2,236 hectares, incorporating lakes, peat bogs, and woodland areas between the municipalities of Wanna, Steinau, and Ihlienworth.

The area transformed from a treeless moorland covered in peat moss and heather at the end of the 19th century to a protected conservation zone in 2011.

Local communities participate in educational programs about wetland preservation, while scientists conduct research on climate change effects in the reserve.

Visitors can explore designated trails throughout the reserve, with specific paths designed to minimize impact on sensitive ecosystems and wildlife habitats.

The NABU Climate Fund supports a 20-year project to revitalize 200 hectares of the moor, establishing it as a dedicated climate protection area.
