From the "Wildes Moor" viewing hill, a sweeping view opens up over the almost treeless raised moor and green landscape, interspersed with renaturalized bodies of water. The atmosphere is particularly mystical in the morning with ground mist and the rising sun. A circular trail allows you to experience the unique flora and fauna: patches of cotton grass and sphagnum moss, bracken, and moor grass alternate, providing habitat for approximately 50 breeding bird species and various dragonflies and grasshoppers.

NOK... that's a bit longer than this one highlight point. According to the RV tourists, it's absolutely amazing. The standing places are booked up for the entire season. As a cyclist, it can be a bit boring at times, but there are a few nice places to stop for a break. A special highlight at sunrise and sunset.
