Sheep in Pestruper Heide

Highlight • Natural

The sheep are responsible for nature conservation in the Pestrup Heath; without them the heath would become overgrown. In addition, parts of the heath have been cleared, i.e. bushes have been removed.

Pestruper Gräberfeld Heathland

Highlight • Natural Monument

Most of the graves in the huge burial ground date from the Bronze and pre-Roman Iron Age. The so-called "royal tombs" were not tombs but cremation places for the dead.

Many different mosses and lichens can be found on the ground and on trees among the heath.

Due to the water in the ditches, water-loving plants are well represented. As there would be meadow sweet, valerian, blood and yellow willow.

Pond on the Moormarsch

Highlight • Lake

Today there wasn't a single water bird to be seen here. Normally there is always something to discover here.

Pestruper Moor Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural

The Prestrupper Moor is a slope pressure moor due to the difference in altitude to the Prestrupper burial ground in the direction of Hunte.
The hike through the moor and burial ground is a beautiful contrast.
