Pond in the Heath

Highlight • Lake

A fen is a usually shallow lake that occurs on Pleistocene sandy soils. Fens have varying water levels and are rarely larger than a few hectares. Fens are exclusively understood as natural waters. They are fed by rainwater or groundwater.

One of the most beautiful viewpoints you will encounter at the new reindeer hunters' point proposed in March 2025. Why a viewpoint? Because corten steel silhouettes of reindeer were placed at what is now the reindeer meadow so that it seems for a moment that you are really seeing the reindeer. At the viewpoint you will also find a wooden bear, various information boards, a bench and more objects to feel in the time and world of the reindeer hunters and to learn something.

Bench to rest on

Highlight • Viewpoint

One of the many benches in the area, but one where the vastness of the heathland is just that little bit more apparent.
