Natural remedies. Sustainable. Effective.
At the end of the Ice Age around 10.000 years ago, many small lakes, ponds and ponds remained in the area around the Ammergau Alps Nature Park. These waters silted up due to the deposition of dead organic organisms. As fens, they were initially fed by groundwater. Over the centuries, contact with groundwater was lost and raised bogs developed that are supplied solely by precipitation.
The mountain pine raised bog was created at the end of the last ice age.
Moore are climate protectors! Depending on the type of soil, bogs store up to 700 tons of CO2 per hectare. That's six times as much as a regular hectare of forest!
Peat mosses, which are responsible for the growth of bogs, can store up to 3000 percent of their dry matter in water.
A full mud bath is heated to around 42 °C. This puts the body into an artificial healing fever and encourages it to heal itself!
Peatlands cover 3 percent of the earth's surface worldwide. At the same time, they store around 26-44% of the total CO2 stored in the ground!
The moor is mined directly in the region using traditional handcraft and brought to the moor experts and application companies via the shortest possible route for processing.
Sustainability: After use, the moor is returned to the mining area. Over the course of about a decade, it completely regenerates there.
The origins and significance of the highly sensitive ecosystem are explained on the moor nature trails in Bad Kohlgrub and Bad Bayersoien. Visitors learn how a moor is created, dismantled, prepared and renatured.
