Huvenhoopsmoor

Huvenhoopsmoor, Protected moor ecosystem in Gnarrenburg, Germany.

Description

Huvenhoopsmoor is a protected moor ecosystem covering about 1.4 square kilometers and featuring wooden walkways throughout. Visitors can observe terrestrial and wetland habitats while following designated paths that keep them safe and guide them through the landscape.

History

The moor received initial protection status in 1999 and was designated as a National Geotope in 2018. This recognition acknowledged the area's distinctive geological features.

Culture

The educational trail features a character called Huvi, the Moorkobold, who introduces visitors to the natural features at different stations along the path. This playful approach helps guests understand how the moorland functions.

Practical

The ground can become wet and slippery, especially after rain, so sturdy footwear and caution are recommended. Cyclists must walk their bikes along the marked paths, and visitors can explore safely by staying on the designated walkways.

Did you know?

The site includes a dedicated zone where visitors can experience firsthand the physical properties of the moor under controlled conditions. This hands-on experience gives a direct sense of what the moor soil actually feels like.
