Anklam Peat Bog Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The circular path through the moor ends at a small parking lot with lookout tower and information boards. From here you have a breathtaking view over the regularly flooded polders with their diverse bird life. Especially at dusk, the photos are postcards ripe and wearing the binoculars has paid off here at the latest. On the paved European cycle path on the left you come then after about two kilometers back to Bugewitz.

Große Kuhle Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The "Große Kuhle" is located between the central and west peat canal and is a huge forest-free area covered with reeds, in which peat was previously mined. On the southern edge is the lookout tower, from which you can see across the “Große Kuhle” to the Karniner bridge.

peat canals

Highlight • Natural

There are always beavers to be found along the peat bogs, and the chance of seeing a beaver is quite high here.

In the moor you cross over three bridges the three peat channels of the Anklam city break. From them you have a beautiful view of the open water surface with floating bulten that grown naturally from sour grasses. After the second bridge, an old wooden signposts the way, as soon as it goes through a sparse spruce stand (reforestation from the 1940s). At the third station there is next to the information board a lookout tower with a wide view over the reed peat. With the binoculars you can watch marsh harriers and white-tailed eagles. One of 20 white-tailed eagles can be seen on a jaw in the rear view area. In the area in 2017 there were twelve white-tailed eagle breeding pairs.

The now lined by oak path meets after some time on the third peat channel, which you follow left hand to the bridge. From here it gets a bit boggy. After about fifteen minutes you then hit a Plattenweg - the old connecting road between Bugewitz and Kamp. In rainy times, he is partially under water and can only be walked on with rubber boots.

Through the Anklam Moor there is a path marked with a blue dot marking, which is not always easy to find here. Five stations, each with its own information board, line the path. Accompanied by numerous butterflies and dragonflies (Admiral, EnzianBläuling and Greater Caterpillar are native here), it is initially straight through open moorland and riparian areas. At the second station, there are interesting facts about the history and a great view of a peat bog from the 19th century spared Hochmoorstück. It was shielded from the rest of the area to protect the specialized bog flora from nutrient inputs. Here there is the possibility of an additional loop around the "Knechtsort", which extends the tour by three kilometers.

Very nice rest area, unfortunately the café opposite is only open on weekends.

Fantastically beautiful landscape. There is an incredible number of waterfowl to see here. Be sure to take binoculars with you.

The Anklam city break is an approximately 1,800-acre moorland at the mouth of the Peene in the Oderhaff. It is Germany's largest bog forest. Two ways are here officially released, otherwise one should cross the city break only with a guide.
