Description

The Wendschotter und Vorsfelder Drömling is a flat lowland area on moorland in the glacial valley of the Aller. Characteristic are high groundwater levels and periodic flooding. It's a complex of largely extensively used floodplains, wet meadows, hay meadows and pastures. Scattered are smaller forest areas, hedges, bushes, reed beds and smaller still waters, connected by an extensive network of ditches with rich aquatic vegetation and connection to the Aller river system. The area is divided into two parts by the Mittelland Canal. Beavers and otters live in the area, many special dragonflies and amphibians are found here, as well as special flora. But the area is also great for birdwatching. Among the birds you can see are Cigogne noire, Cigogne blanche, Râle des genêts, Busard des roseaux, Milan royal, Milan noir, Faucon hobereau, Bécassine des marais, Torcol fourmilier, Rossignol philomèle and Loriot d'Europe.

The former swampland was transformed by drainage from a natural into a cultural landscape.

Most of the area is now made up of nature reserves and protected areas.
