Hiking

The Osterheide is a small part of the large Lüneburg Heath. There is usually less going on here than at the big hot spots.

Hiking

There's also a lot going on in the Osterheide, at least during the heather blossom season and on weekends. Outside of these times, it's quieter. There are beautiful views of the purple heather, both during the blossoming season and at all other times of the year.

Hiking

Even if the heather is brown, it's worth it because you can look so far and the monotonous landscape brings you down and somehow grounds you. And if you go a few steps further, you will find cairns.
