Weingartener Peat Bog and Floodplain Forest, Grötzingen

Highlight • Natural

After the rivers Kinzig and Murg broke through into the Rhine around 7,000 years ago, the former river bed became swampy and moor areas formed, including the Weingartener Moor. Some of the moor has a very high water table [. It was designated as a nature reserve on October 11, 1940, as the area was endangered by peat extraction. The surrounding quarry forest and part of the Grötzinger Baggersee followed on July 27, 1984

April 22, 2025,Weingartener Moor.....immer wieder schön

A hike we enjoy again and again.
The moor landscape here reminds me of a primeval forest.
It's amazing to see all the creatures that crawl and fly there.
On the opposite side, the trail leads up the mountain via interesting sunken paths, where you also have beautiful views.
All in all, a beautiful and successful hike. 👍👍🤩
