Gmöser Moor

Laakirchen, Oberösterreich, Österreich
Located in the municipality of Laakirchen, the Gmöser Moor was declared a nature reserve in 1987. Just in time to save the small moor pond and the surrounding marshy meadows and reed beds from destruction.

The Gmöser Moor as it presents itself today has largely lost its original vegetation, which is typical of moors, due to human intervention in the past. Its enormous value as a nature reserve is primarily due to the huge variety of birds that use the Gmöser Moor as a breeding ground, a resting place when travelling through or as a source of food. At least 95 different bird species have already been observed here, 41 of which regularly breed in the nature reserve, including many of the popular songbird species such as various tits, finches and others. In addition to grey herons, white storks have also been observed as migrants.
