Tinner Dose-Sprakeler Heide, Protected area in Emsland, Germany.

The Tinner Dose-Sprakeler Heide spans 3,955 hectares across four municipalities, featuring extensive moorlands and heath landscapes in Lower Saxony.

Established as a protected area in 2012, this region merged two existing conservation zones while maintaining its military training ground status since 1877.

Archaeological discoveries in the southeastern part of Sprakeler Heide include numerous burial mounds and a preserved megalithic tomb.

The nature reserve encompasses walking trails through heathland areas, with regular guided tours organized by local conservation groups.

This area contains West Lower Saxony's largest untouched raised bog, preserved due to its location within military grounds preventing industrial peat extraction.
