Sensational find in the Peenetal: rediscovery of the small water hose!

In a valuable nature reserve in the heart of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, over 75 nature lovers have a guided hike under the direction of Dr. Frank Hennicke made fascinating discoveries. At the meeting in Gützkow-Liebenthal on the Swinow Bridge, organized by the Nature Park Administration River Landscape Peenetal and the Peenetal association, the participants experienced the impressive beauties of the Peenetal. As uckermarkurier.de reports, emphasized Dr. Hennicke the importance of networking different types of mop, which are of central importance for the ecosystem of the area.

The Naturpark River landscape Peenetal extends over 33,390 hectares and was protected in 2011. It ranges from the Peenetal near Dargun to the Peenemei and the western parts of the Szczecin lagoon. The special thing about the Peenetal: It was created about 12,000 years ago at the end of the Vistula ice cream and is now one of the last unobstructed rivers in Germany, as the website of the Nature Park emphasizes.

impressive nature experiences

The approximately 73 participants were divided into three groups who hiked through the nature reserve. Ornithologists accompanied the bird lovers and offered exciting insights into the world of birds. The sightings included impressive species such as field and pipe swivel, sea and fish eagles as well as the red-back sausages, which are up to 30 centimeters in size. The observation of salting males of the swamp bird Bekassine, also known as "sky goat", was particularly remarkable.

One of the groups also discovered beaver cuts on the Swinow, a water that meanders over 23 km from Karlsburg to Peene. The participants were one of the lucky ones, which also viewed three different types of meadow orchids-including the wide-leaved, stiff-leaved and the white-yellow boy herb. Another highlight was the discovery of the small water hose, one of the last locations in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania with around 60 copies. The carnivorous plant needs nutrient-poor, bogy swamp areas and had already died out in Vorpommern-Greifswald 20 years ago.

a paradise for nature lovers

The river landscape of the Peene comprises around 20,000 hectares and is considered one of the largest coherent Lower bog areas in Central and Western Europe. Here you will find not only rare moor plants and animals, but also a variety of bird species. Three eagle and three naval walks breed in the Peenetal. These unique conditions make the Peene an Eldorado for nature lovers and scientists.

for all those who are enthusiastic about nature, there is the opportunity to participate in guided natural hikes. These are offered to leave the stress of everyday life behind and enjoy the beauty of nature. Interested parties can register for this on 015156074311. Maybe you will discover a few of the treasures that the Peenetal has to offer!
