Note: Unfortunately, card payments are not possible here. The idyllic café in the middle of the Heider Kreistannen is a popular destination for cycling groups and walkers. Seasonally adapted exhibitions by local photographers and artists also allow art lovers to linger in the rustic, cozy ambience of the café.

The Lundener Niederung nature reserve, one of the most important large-scale lowland areas on the Schleswig-Holstein North Sea coast, extends over around 900 hectares and includes a variety of habitats such as silted-up lagoons, remnants of raised and fen moors, wet grassland and open water areas such as the Mötjensee.

This area is an important breeding, feeding and resting place for numerous meadow, wading and water birds and offers ideal living conditions for amphibians such as moor frogs and common toads. Visitors can explore the nature reserve on hiking and riding trails and observe the diverse flora and fauna from the observation tower southwest of the Mötjensee.

A special highlight is the observation tower, from which you can enjoy a comprehensive view of the landscape. Information boards offer insights into the local flora and fauna as well as nature conservation in the region. With a bit of luck, you can even observe a pair of sea eagles that have settled near the Mötjensee.

The Lunden lowlands are looked after by the Mötjenpolder Rehm-Flehde-Bargen local history association and offer a unique nature experience thanks to its varied landscape.

The Broklandsau is a small river in Schleswig-Holstein that flows in the Dithmarschen region and flows into the Eider near Kleve. The river is formed by the confluence of the source streams Wierbek and Osterau and crosses a picturesque meadow landscape. The Broklandsau is an important body of water for the drainage of the surrounding marshlands and plays an important role in the agricultural use of the area.

The Broklandsau is also a popular destination for anglers. Various species of fish such as pike, carp, perch and eel can be caught in its waters, making it an attractive place for sport fishermen. The section around the pumping station in particular offers good fishing opportunities.

There are several historical and cultural attractions near the Broklandsau, such as the St. Rochus Church in Schlichting and the small town of Friedrichstadt, which is known for its well-preserved historical architecture.

The nature reserve comprises a mosaic of water areas, reed beds, wet bushes and agricultural green areas, connected by a network of paths. With a little luck, you will see the rare royal fern and animals such as the great bittern and the green hawker.
