Teufelssee bei Thelkow protects a lake, a high bog, and ancient beech forests in Lieper Holz. This diverse landscape is home to many plant and animal species, plus a Neolithic megalithic tomb.
The Teufelssee bei Thelkow nature reserve safeguards a unique natural mosaic in the hilly Lieper Holz landscape. Central to the reserve is the Teufelssee, a pristine lake, complemented by a high bog-like silting zone on its western side. The lake's shore slopes are adorned with impressive old beech forests, providing a vital habitat for numerous plant and animal species. This protected area ensures the preservation of these diverse ecosystems, from the aquatic life of the lake to the specialized flora of the bog and the rich biodiversity supported by the ancient trees. Beyond its natural beauty, the area holds cultural significance. Near the northern edge, accessible by a forest path, lies the Neolithic megalithic tomb, Großsteingrab Thelkow, offering a glimpse into ancient human history within this serene natural setting.
