Loop
In Nicklheim, peat was extracted for 130 years when the peat factory there came to an end in 2006. Since then the moor has been extensively renatured. The effort is worth it: nature is regaining its place piece by piece.
The moor and nature can be experienced intensely on this hike around the "Rosenheimer Stammbeckenmoore". You can discover rare plants, watch birds or just enjoy the panorama of the Chiemgau Alps.
