Winzlarer Turm Lookout

Highlight • Viewpoint

There is a lookout tower here. There are swallows' nests inside. When you're inside and sitting quietly, the swallows come inside and they sing. If you move slowly, you can take pictures of them.

Birdwatching hide at Meerbruchswiesen

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view from the wooden platform to the reed belt along the shore is already beautiful and the width of the water surface is an experience. In addition, a pair of binoculars in this place is a useful utensil to enhance the enjoyment of nature. Finally, the Steinhuder Meer is a breeding, wintering and transit area of many wading and water bird species. Bird watching is possible from here.

Meerbruchswiesen Birdwatching Area

Highlight • Natural Monument

Ornithologists' hearts beat faster here. Whole colonies rest in the meadows at the right time of the year and chatter as much as they can. Information boards along the way report on the native bird species and what else crawls and flies.

Meerbruchswiesen Nature Reserve — Birdwatching at Lake Steinhude

Highlight • Natural

The Meerbruchswiesen on Lake Steinhude are an important resting and breeding area for more than 280 bird species, including white-tailed eagles, ospreys, cranes, garganeys, lapwings, great egrets and various species of geese and ducks. With a little patience, you can also observe smew and goosanders, ruffs, common terns, red and black kites and numerous other waders and waterfowl on the rewetted wetlands, shallow water zones and at the pools.

Village Square in Winzlar

Highlight • Settlement

Even 800 years after its founding, Winzlar has not lost its village character. Brick buildings line the streets, cottage gardens bloom in lush splendor and near a stork's nest, the village moat ripples right through the middle of the small town.
The short detour from the circular hiking trail around the Steinhuder Meer is definitely worth it. But before that, hikers and cyclists get to see another idyllic specialty: the "floating meadows" are the direct connection from Winzlar to northwest Germany's largest inland lake. Flora and fauna are unique there, nature conservation and tourism brought to a common denominator.
