description
The bog area in Wietingsmoor between Twistringen, Sulingen and Barnstorf in Diepholzer Moorniederung . The raised bog areas in the former nature reserve have been peated over a large area or have been peated further after being placed under protection. The pitted areas were partially cultivated and are mainly used extensively as grassland . In addition, there are arable land and heather areas, but raised bogs have also been preserved in the central areas of the moorland. The bog areas affected by peat cutting after the end of its useful rewetted and then rehabilitated.
The area is drained via trenches and the Bargeriege and the Tüske and Wagenfelder Aue to the Hunte , the Schweringhäuser Bach, Kuhbach and Kleine Aue and the Flöte with Moorkanal and the Wietinghäuser Graben to the Große Aue and on to the Weser .
