Dosenmoor, Protected area in Neumünster, Germany.

The Dosenmoor spans 521 hectares of regenerating raised bog, situated between the River Eider and Stör on the watershed near Einfeld village.

The peat extraction operations in Dosenmoor concluded in the late 1970s, leading to its designation as a protected area in 1981.

The conservation center provides educational programs about the bog's ecosystem, focusing on local species and environmental protection methods.

Visitors can explore the protected area through a 2.5-kilometer main path starting from the parking lot near the railway tunnel towards Kleinharrie.

The bog maintains populations of specialized plants like sundews that capture insects with sticky leaves, while cotton grass displays white seed heads.
