This autumn morning sky is "big cinema" but I set off late and don't get to the Great Torfmoor until midday. The cranes are already coming towards me but I can't get a good shot from the car. There are lots of ducks and geese with cormorants at the moor lakes.

Hike in Hiller Torfmoor with Gabriel. All completely new paths 👍😀 The area is very flat there, hardly any meters in altitude. There was sunshine and a few rain showers on the way. The Hiller Moor is a hiking hotspot, there were a lot of like-minded people on the way. A nice tour, recommended. Fine.

Great round and almost alone. Sun protection almost unavoidable as there is no shade. Definitely take a photo and binoculars with you...

From the visitor center you …

Always beautiful 😃 probably the best piece of land in OWL!

However, someone told us on the way that the dog must not be more than a meter off the leash, as it could scare someone 🤓

Today we went on a hike through the large peat bog near Hille😍. I love the moor, and my good husband went with me again ... 🥾🥾😇.

It was very quiet when you walked in the moor, only sometimes you could hear a bird chirping or the splashing of a duck from the nearby canal.
There are three observation towers …
