geography
location
The Ankumer Höhe is located about 18 km northwest of the medium- sized town of Bramsche near Osnabrück - between Ankum in the east and Fürstenau in the west and between mountains in the northwest and Alfhausen in the southeast. The southeastern foothills of the ridge, which lies in the north-western part of the TERRA.vita nature and geopark (formerly the Northern Teutoburg Forest-Wiehengebirge nature park), extend almost to the Alfsee near Alfhausen . The landscape of the ridge leads from the district of Osnabrück to the northwest in the district of Emsland with Herzlake there and to the north in the district of Cloppenburg with Löningen there .
Neighbors of the Ankumer Höhe are: the Oldenburger Münsterland in the northeast, the Dammer Berge in the east-southeast, the Gehn ridge in the southeast and beyond it the west-northwest foothills of the Wiehengebirge , the Tecklenburger Land in the south and beyond it the northwest foothills of the Teutoburg Forest . In addition, the Lingener Höhe in the west-south-west and the Hahnenmoor in the north-west join with the Hümmling ridge in the north-west, all three of which are located in the Emsland .
geology
The Ankumer Höhe is part of an ice age terminal moraine from the earlier glaciation of the Saale Ice Age , the Drenthe I stage. To this as Rehburger phase designated ice stage , which can be dated to around 230,000 years before present, include the Lingen Heights , the Dammer Berge , the Kellenberg and Brelinger mountain, but not rehburg hills on Steinhude . Together with its almost symmetrical counterpart, the Dammer Mountains on the other side of the Hase valley, the Ankumer Höhe traces the most striking glacier globe of this ice-edge location; this Bersenbrück-Dammer terminal moraine arc filled the lowland bay of the Artland .
