Theikenmeer Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Theikenmeer is an impressive landscape. It is one of the oldest protected areas in Germany. By rewetting the former high moor, attempts are being made to create a habitat for rare moor dwellers. In the meantime, endangered dragonfly species are buzzing around you again, such as the moss damsel or the darter dragonfly.

Theikenmeer Birdwatching Hide

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The lookout tower is beautifully situated towards the water, so that waterfowl and migratory birds can be observed wonderfully.
It can also be used as a rest stop. Seating is available for at least six people.

Hümmlinger Pilgrimage Trail at Theikenmeer Nature Reserve

Highlight • Trail

At this point the hiking trail leads past the raised moor of the Theikenmeer. Due to the rewetting and renaturation, many rare birds can be seen here again. Maybe you'll be lucky and spot marsh harriers, short-eared owls, stonechats or nightjars.
