The Vossberge are a nature reserve in the Lower Saxony municipality of Sottrum. It is a former shifting dune area, the very fine sands of which are only slightly in motion. To reduce the movement of the sands, pines and beach grass were previously planted in some areas. After the traditional sheep grazing was abandoned after the Second World War, the dune area was populated by trees, so that today there are only a few open dune areas.
