Description of the walk

The starting point for the walk is the car park on the main road between Tiste and Wistedt, near the Moorbahn railway station.

(S/E) We set off southwards, past the Moorbahn railway station, and keep to the right behind the car park. This is where the nature trail into the Tister Moor begins.

(1) We turn left onto a small viewing platform offering our first glimpse of the moorland. We then continue along the footpath, turning left again at the next junction.

(2) We walk along the Heideweg. Right at the start, there’s a station where you can try out peat rakes. At the end of the path, we turn left onto the main path. We cross the Moorbahn railway tracks. Next, left again.

(3) We are now walking along the Schwingrasenweg. Next left, then the second left, right and, at the end, left again. We follow the main path southwards. We turn left at the next junction.

(4) We head towards a viewpoint, then turn back and follow the main path southwards again.

(5) The next highlight is the observation tower, from which we have a superb view over the watery areas of the moor. We then take a detour to the right to a viewing platform before heading back along the main path to the car park (S/E).

The tour took place in March (early spring) in fine weather. There were relatively few people on the grounds.
The paths were great for walking. Unfortunately, there wasn’t much wildlife to be seen. Hardly any birds. But we plan to go again.
The café is highly recommended, with delicious food and drinks. Prices are reasonable. The service was very friendly.

At the beginning of the heather blossom, the region is always good
You can also extend the tour with several circular walks north of the road
