Bird watching tower on the southwest edge of the Dalum-Wietmarscher Moor
On the southwestern edge of the Dalum-Wietmarscher Moor, in the area of the community Wietmarschen, in the district Füchtenfeld, there is a bird watching tower and an interactive Moorkate on the topics "Natura 2000" and "Moore for climate protection".
In addition, a geocache was set up, whose "hiding place" can be determined by an intensive examination of the information of the station. See Geocache GC3T1QQ (

The more than 1,500 hectares of peat is a designated EU bird sanctuary, which offers a habitat especially wading and meadow birds. "The area must remain tree-free"
The bog is the home of many rare animals and plants, from birds such as Whinchat and Bluethroat to Moor Frogs and Schlingnattern.
I myself have observed a number of ducks, herons and even 6 cranes that stood in a group on a nearby pasture.
