The Lüneburg Heath Nature Park is located in northern Lower Saxony and is part of the Lüneburg Heath vacation region. Its ideal location between the three cities of Hamburg, Hanover and Bremen makes it a popular destination for day trips and weekend excursions.

The Lüneburg Heath Nature Park was one of the first nature parks in Germany and is now one of the largest and best-known. It covers 107,000 hectares; at its heart in the Lüneburg Heath nature reserve and around the Wilseder Berg, it comprises the largest contiguous areas of heathland in Central Europe. Hikers can also discover heath streams, moors, old forests and picturesque villages with thatched cottages.

    4.5 (110)·Moderate·5.7 mi·Est. 2.5–3 hr
    Popular loop trail in the Lüneburg Heath, Lower Saxony. A relaxed tour through the vastness of the Lüneburg Heath. From Undeloh you hike over the Wilseder Berg and through the idyllic heath village of Wilsede. Since this area is one of the most popular regions of the Lueneburg Heath, it can get a little crowded here, especially when the heather is in bloom. There are places to stop for refreshments and only a few inclines, so the route should also be manageable for families with...
