A wonderful path through the moorland, worth a visit any time of year. Unfortunately, the return journey is on roads...

A beautiful pond with a swimming area, but unfortunately not really walkable, unless you simply walk along the meadow next to the reeds. I wonder if the farmer would like that? Perhaps in the fall 😉

The Arrisrieder Moos Nature Reserve is a remnant of a considerable size raised bog with diverse moor biotopes surrounding it. It was formed at the end of the Würm glaciation approximately 10,000 years ago between two terminal moraine ridges that had been pushed up by the Rhine glacier. Peat was first extracted on a large scale in the Arrisrieder Moos in the 18th century. The peat mass is up to five meters thick. In 1914, a peat works was built in the south of the present-day nature reserve. After peat extraction ceased in 1960, a peat extraction company attempted by all means in the 1970s to obtain permission for continued use of the bog. Resistance from the population prevented the final destruction of the bog: the forestry administration declared the area a protected forest in 1984, and in 1989, it was further protected as a nature reserve.
