Grundloses Moor

It has an area of 4.7 hectares (12 acres) and lies at 72.5 metres (238 ft) above mean sea level.

The moor was formed in the northeastern half of a 4-kilometre-long depression enclosed by two parallel end moraines which were deposited during the Saalian glaciation.

The Grundloses Moor nature reserve is dominated by cottongrass, cranberries, bilberries, peat moss and cross-leaved heath.

It was formerly used for peat cutting, especially in the south, but has regenerated itself after measures to raise the water levels were introduced.

It is possible to walk around the lake close to its shore setting out from hikers' car parks to the east (Ebbingen) and south (north of the Fulde).
