Mittelradde

Mittelradde in the wind and water mill Hüven

The Mittelradde is a 36.5 km long, north-east or right tributary of the hare in the Emsland district, Lower Saxony ( Germany ).

Source and course

The river rises a few kilometers east of the hilly moraine landscape of Hümmling in raised bog and nature reserve Bockholter box, a bog between Werlte - Bockholte in the west and relief floodplains in the east. From its source the Mittelradde runs in a south-westerly direction - the Hüvener mill passing - approximately parallel to Nordradde to the northwest and to the southeast by Südradde Doergen (western district of Haselünne ), where in the rabbit, an EMS tributary flows. The lowlands of the Mittelradde is a grassland area in Low Moor, which is proved on the basis of numerous rare in many places birds like curlew, black-tailed godwit and lapwing large area as EU bird sanctuary.

Watershed

The headwaters of the Mittelradde in Bockholter box lies on the watershed between the hare and promised Ems. While the Mittelradde in most south-westerly direction directly tends towards the hare, the water of Marka, the further north the same bog entfließt, mostly in a northerly direction into the promised Ems, which also belongs to the Ems catchment.
