Tour de Flur Station 12 Rhododendrons

Highlight • Natural Monument

Very, very beautiful parks, you should pay particular attention to the fact that the rhododendron is driven here at the time of flowering. There are rhododendron trees that are over 100 years old. Is worth a detour.

Rhodopark Hobbie

Highlight • Natural Monument

Beautiful park - quite popular in the spring and then also at its most impressive. Nice in the rest of the year, but less special - but still worthwhile for a break in between if you're in the area anyway.

Our destination today was the Hobbie Rhododendron Park in Westerstede. We had given the trip to my parents as a gift. The timing was perfect; the rhododendrons (and azaleas, and so on) were in full bloom.

The 70-hectare park, set in a forest, is truly beautiful. There are paths, both large and small, benches, and shelters everywhere, as well as …

The park is easy to navigate in a wheelchair, a FreeWheel is an advantage if you also want to use the small paths. When it's in bloom, it's absolutely insane.

Unfortunately, the distance is incorrect because he often lost his GPS in the forest. It was 5 km instead of 3. The park is truly beautiful and highly recommended.

Europe's largest rhododendron nature park. Entrance fee during flowering season is 7.50 euros.
Large parking spaces, including for buses. There are currently a lot of visitors.
The very nice restaurant unfortunately only offers a limited selection of food.

Unfortunately, they are a bit too early this year, not everything is in bloom yet. Especially the huge shrubs, more than 10 meters high, are not in bloom yet. A …
