Fröslev-Jardelunder Moor

The Fröslev-Jardelunder Moor spans 224 hectares of protected land featuring high moor remnants, dystrophic lakes, and moist heathland along the German-Danish border.

The area received its protected status in 1984 and underwent significant restoration between 1993 and 1995, including the removal of drainage ditches and water level restoration.

The nature reserve represents a collaborative conservation effort between Germany and Denmark, with both countries maintaining protected areas on their respective sides of the border.

Visitors can explore the area through a 2.5-kilometer nature trail, which provides access to various sections of the moor and opportunities for wildlife observation.

The reserve houses specific bird species protected under European directives, including Grus grus and Lanius collurio, along with rare peat-forming vegetation types.
