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.

Chiemsee-Alpenland describes the Nicklheimer Peatlands as a habitat for sphagnum moss, sundew, numerous dragonfly species, and rare bird species, especially during migration.
