Beschrijving
Part of the Huvenhoopsmoor raised bog has been completely spared from drainage and peat extraction to this day. As early as the 1960s, the intact remains were separated from the surrounding areas by a watertight sheet pile wall to prevent them from drying out in the course of drainage in the surrounding area. The 1.5 square kilometre intact remainder is largely open terrain with very few trees. The raised bog area may not be entered, but is clearly visible from an observation stand at the end of a trail.
Kraanvogel is breeding in the Huvenhoopsmoor. In addition, you can find Boomvalk, Grauwe Klauwier, Koekoek, Kievit, Watersnip, Dodaars, Bruine Kiekendief, Rode Wouw, Roodborsttapuit, Geelgors, Rietgors, geese and many species of ducks. There are also over 20 species of dragonflies.
During Kraanvogel migration in spring and autumn many Kraanvogel rest for a few days in the Huvenhoopsmoor. During this time, the bog is populated by several thousand Kraanvogel that feed on harvested fields in the area.
