Description

Here you have come to the realm of water. Flowering marshes are criss-crossed by rippling streams. Here and there, groundwater flows up into springs where unusual plants and mosses thrive. Several gravel embankments run through the area. One of the embankments was the shore of the former Littorina Sea in the Baltic Sea almost 10,000 years ago. Today, the embankments are covered with old spruce and pine forests. In autumn, the ground glows with various colorful mushrooms.
