The nature reserve is located south of Oldenburg in the part of the Osenberge between Sandkrug and Sandhatten in the Wildeshauser Geest Nature Park . It represents a predominantly with stock with conifers inland dunes area under protection, in which several Slatts with cotton grass peat moss- quaking and torfmoosreichen marshes and ponds are embedded with Strandlings- and dwarf rush vegetation. The waters are often surrounded by pronounced siltation zones. The bog locations are home to various peat mosses such as the middle peat moss , bell heather , white schnabelried , narrow-leaved and Scheidiges cottongrass , round-leaved sundew and common cranberries , as well as gray sedge and beak sedge . They are the habitat of raised bog mother- of- pearl butterflies , raised bog blue and peat bog owl. At margins are sand heaths with heather and crowberry and bilberry and various mosses to find.
