Segeberger Forest

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Segeberger Forest

The Segeberger Staatsforst - formerly Segeberger Heide - is located in the Segeberg district , has an area of ​​over 4,000 hectares and is therefore the second largest contiguous forest area in Schleswig-Holstein after the Sachsenwald . In the 16th and 17th centuries, large areas were cleared for further processing. This created the so-called Segeberger Heide. Due to afforestation , the forest predominates again. The nature reserve Barker Heide is the remainder of the Segeberger Heide. The forest area corresponds roughly to the municipality-free area of ​​the Buchholz forest estate . The stock includes spruce , pine and larch stocks , but also beech and oak stocks can be found. The Segeberger Forst is traversed by the federal highway 206 between Bad Segeberg and Bad Bramstedt , the district road 78 and the K102. In Heidmühlen , the confluence of the Radesford Au and Rothenmühlenau rivers create the Osterau .

In July 2012, a photo trap detected the first wolf in the forest in Schleswig-Holstein for 200 years.
