In autumn time you can enjoy the glorious colours of the leaves in the woodland areas. For the moor farmers of earlier generations harvest time and preparations for winter now began. Festivals and cultural events of all kinds invite you to experience these traditional ways of life in the region. For example, the Buckwheat Blossom Festival or the Market of Delights at the Emsland Moor Museum: you can sample regional specialities and valuable foodstuffs from the Slow-Food Association to your heart's content at many regional suppliers' stands.
