With the bike into the peat experience of the Nicklheimer Peatlands
This explorer tour takes you on two wheels into a landscape where natural history, peat ecology, and regional culture are closely intertwined. The starting point is the Bürgerhaus Mangfalltreff in Kolbermoor. From there, it goes towards the Nicklheimer Peatlands, a special peat area in the Chiemsee-Alpenland, known for its rare plants, bird species, and typical raised bog landscapes.
Between Mangfall, cycle path, and peat soil
The route connects the urban environment of Kolbermoor with a quiet, nature-oriented cycling path through the Mangfall Valley and the area around Raubling and Nicklheim. Along the way, wide sightlines, water-adjacent passages, and the tranquil atmosphere of the bog characterize the discovery experience. This makes the tour particularly appealing for all who want to combine movement and local history.
Insights into a sensitive ecosystem
The Nicklheimer Peatlands are one of the impressive peat landscapes of the region. Chiemsee-Alpenland describes the Nicklheimer Peatlands as a habitat for sphagnum moss, sundew, numerous dragonfly species, and rare bird species, especially during migration.
