The Hohe Moor near Stade is a raised bog that is around 5,000 years old. After a mining phase lasting around 130 years between 1830 and the 1960s, the moor was renaturalized and rewetted over an area of around 653 hectares between 2001 and 2006. The nature reserve extends beyond the actual rewetting areas and has an area of 862 hectares including the edge areas. Today it consists of a mosaic of open water areas, wet meadows, peat moss lawns and moor forest.
