In autumn you can marvel at the faded heather, the colorful and contrasting moor landscape with its many characteristic mini lakes, the so-called moor biotopes, in which the plants and tree stumps are reflected and, of course, photographed...

+++The moor adventure trail partly takes you along wooden plank paths through the varied moorland landscape. +++For the extensive view over the moor with the heights of the Wiehengebirge in the background, it is worth climbing to the observation tower (north tower) (source: https://www.teutoburgerwald.de/wandern-radfahr/in-der-natur/tour/...).
