Lieberose Heath

Lieberose Heath is a natural landscape in eastern Brandenburg featuring extensive sandy terrain, wetlands, mixed forests, and heathland across its broad area. The site remains accessible through marked trails with information stations that explain ongoing restoration efforts focused on recovering natural water systems.

The area formerly served as a military training ground until conservation efforts began transforming it into protected wilderness after 2000. This shift represents a major shift where abandoned military land gradually returns to its natural state.

The heath functions as a space where nature recovery is visible to visitors during walks, with returned wildlife like cranes and otters showing how the place evolves. Local conservation efforts shape how people experience and move through these restored landscapes today.

The trails are well marked for walking through the different habitat zones spread across the land. Information boards placed throughout help visitors navigate and understand the natural processes happening in each area.

The land demonstrates how single-species pine forests naturally shift into more diverse mixed forests as nature reclaims the former military zones. This self-driven process allows animal species to gradually return to the region on their own.
