Ahrbergen Between Floodplain Forest and History

Ahrbergen combines a protected floodplain landscape with local history and a cycling route themed around the power of water. In spring, the Ahrberger/Groß Förster Holz offers blossoms and a forest alive with birds. The old manor and St. Maria Church add further points of interest. Nature, history, and a themed cycling tour give you a range of reasons to explore the area.

Floodplain Forest Along the Old Course of the Innerste

The protected Ahrberger/Groß Förster Holz is a floodplain forest along an old course of the Innerste. The landscape stretches through Hasede, Ahrbergen, and Groß Förste. Its extent shows that the protected woodland encompasses several localities. A floodplain forest grows in a landscape shaped by rivers; the old course of the Innerste makes this connection clear on site. Blossoms appear in spring, and the forest landscape is also known for its rich birdlife. Here, the river, seasonal natural displays, and diverse birdlife come together.

When visiting nature areas, please stay on the paths and keep dogs on a leash. You can plan for these requirements from the outset, whether you want to enjoy the spring blossoms or look out for birds.

The Manor and St. Maria Church

The old manor is closely tied to the history of the local noble family of Saxon origin. This connection provides a tangible historical point of reference and adds a cultural perspective to your view of Ahrbergen.
