Descrizione

It has been protected since 2004 and is the third largest nature reserve in Schleswig-Holstein. Highlight in the Oberalsterniederung nature reserve is the Schlappenmoor, a wet moor area where many orchids grow. The surrounding wet grasslands serve as a breeding ground for meadow birds such as Chiurlo maggiore, Beccaccino and Pavoncella. Also Re di quaglie can be sometimes heard. In and around the Schlappenmoor you can encounter birds like Stiaccino, Zigolo giallo , Saltimpalo, Quaglia, Cuculo, Gru, Gheppio, Allodola and Averla piccola.
