Wonderful moorland, a great experience even after the fire or precisely because of it.

Moor Platform Niederlausitzer Heidelandschaft

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautiful, but better not over this trail in summer. Mosquitoes and horseflies eat you up. ;) Then rather go the longer way around the moor.

At one of the many entrances to the Praise Hall there is not only a guard but also a beautifully designed book with legends and stories.
Beautifully made, not just for children.
Absolutely great.

September 10, 2023,Runde von Hohenleipisch durch den Loben

The landscape is very beautiful and interesting. Unfortunately, many paths are gravel and gravel paths and are very wide. It's more for cyclists.

March 22, 2025,Wanderung durch den Loben

Today we hiked through the moorland of Hohenleipisch. There were many information boards, the circular trail was well signposted, and a few charming wooden sculptures lined our path. The weather and the scenery contributed greatly to our well-being. The only drawback to this hike was the lack of seating where we could rest or have a picnic. Only at the …

March 15, 2025,🇩🇪 Hohenleipisch > Moor-Runde 🥰🌤️🍀👌🏻🥰

A beautiful and highly recommended tour on fantastic trails through the flora and fauna of the Brandenburg moorland, once again with a favorite person by my side🍀! We were blown away.🥰

We parked near the disused Hohenleipisch train station, which immediately greeted us with an interesting lost place – presumably the former railway guard's house. There's still a lot there …

A little lost and a little different thought. A nice hike.

February 19, 2025,Von Der Nix! nach Krügers Tongruben

We like the Loben. And because it has a special "beauty cap" in winter with a bit of snow, we really wanted to enjoy the white fairytale forest with friends. But our friends' modern means of transport had something against it. So we did the tour just the two of us. On the way to the observation tower, I spontaneously …

May 1, 2022,Runde "Durch den Loben" - Hohenleipisch - Moorgebiet Loben

The goal of today's hike was the moor area "Der Loben" in southern Brandenburg. The Loben is one of the nature reserves in the Niederlausitz Heathland Nature Park and we started our hike at the forest car park near the former Hohenleipisch train station.

Happy Me 🎁

Every year we go for a nice walk for my birthday. This year, we discovered it by chance, through the Loben Moor.

We felt like we were in Sweden 🥰 that was really great.

The signposts and explanatory boards are really nicely done and don't overwhelm you with the amount of information.

March 23, 2025,Hohenleipisch | Vom Bahnhof in den Loben

Simply put, the Loben is a former peat extraction area that is now being rewetted and will serve as a CO2 storage facility in the future. The expected abundance of birdsong was unfortunately still missing, but at least the tits were unmistakable, and cranes occasionally trumpeted. On an island, we spotted a breeding whooper swan. However, there are numerous forest …
