Ochsenmoor, Nature reserve in Hüde, Germany
The Ochsenmoor spans 1,029 hectares of fens, sedge meadows, reeds, and scattered swamp forests between Dümmer Lake and western Dümmer lowland.
In the 1980s, large sections of Ochsenmoor underwent rewetting projects to enhance biological habitats, with these initiatives reaching completion in 2000.
Local shepherds maintain the landscape using Diepholzer Moorschnucken sheep, following traditional agricultural methods that support ground-nesting bird populations.
The nature conservation station operates daily from 10 AM to 6 PM, featuring an accessible exhibition and a 4.5-kilometer discovery trail with 13 educational stations.
The area serves as a winter rest stop for Nordic geese, ruffs, and other migratory birds, with seasonal flooding creating specific conditions until early summer.
