Grönauer Heide, Grönauer Moor und Blankensee, Nature reserve near Lübeck, Germany
Grönauer Heide, Grönauer Moor and Blankensee is a protected nature reserve near Lübeck that combines heathlands, moors, and a lake. The area contains several distinct habitat types that support different specialized plant and animal species.
The area was originally densely forested until medieval times, when settlers cleared portions for agricultural use. This human activity ultimately created the open landscape that is now protected.
The protected area reflects a long relationship with people who have shaped the landscape through centuries of land use. Visitors today can observe how open heathlands and wetlands are maintained as living landscapes where specialized plants and animals thrive.
Visitors can walk and ride on marked paths in the southern section, while the northern area is closed to protect wildlife. It is important to stick to designated routes to avoid disturbing the sensitive habitats.
The reserve is home to rare plants like polygala and specific heather varieties that thrive in nutrient-poor soils. These specialized species have adapted to both the dry and wet zones of the site and maintain a delicate ecological balance.
