Description
The Ainringer Moos has its origins in the last ice age around 12,000 years ago. Dead parts of plants formed peat layer by layer. Peat mining began at the beginning of the 19th century. Renaturation began in the 1990s and the area was waterlogged again by closing the drainage ditches. Reed zones and bushy areas with birch trees formed. A circular moorland trail with a viewing tower was created.
The Ainringer Moos is an important stopover for many migratory birds and an important breeding habitat for numerous bird species. These include waders, herons, ducks and geese. Among the birds you can encounter are Mjallhegri, Dverggoði, Toppgoði, Vepja, Lyngstelkur, Dílaskarfur, Gaukur, Turtildúfa, Blábrystingur, Toppmeisa, Gultittlingur, Taumönd and Brúnheiðir.
