Giebelmoor, Nature reserve in Lower Saxony, Germany

Giebelmoor spreads across 670 hectares of wetlands, featuring alder and birch forests interspersed with oak mixed woodlands and numerous drainage channels.

The nature reserve received official protection status on May 5, 1961, following initial regulations established in April of the same year.

The area functions as a research center for scientists studying the intersection of Atlantic and continental species within the Weser-Aller lowlands.

The District of Gifhorn manages the reserve, providing detailed information and interactive maps through the Lower Saxony Water Management website.

Two sections of the reserve, totaling 160 hectares, contain forest areas with minimal human intervention, preserving dead wood and natural decay processes.
