Description
The Hühnermoor is composed of wetlands, deciduous forest, and moorland, surrounded by agricultural fields. It is possible to explore various routes through these environments. For birding, the forest area and the marsh are probably the most interesting.
From the marsh, you can view a restored stretch of the Lutter river meadow to the south, where, if you're lucky, you'll see some cibík chochlatý. In the marsh itself you may find bernikľa veľká among other species. The forest area is where it is possible at times to spot výr skalný. More common however, are sýkorka chochlatá, králik zlatohlavý, sýkorka hôrna and other typical forest/woodland birds. In the fields around and above the wetlands at certain hours you will see haja červená.
