Wilsede Village

Highlight • Settlement

The picturesque heath village of Wilsede is closed to motor vehicles and can only be reached on foot, by bike or by horse-drawn carriage. There are several old farms here and you can learn a lot about life in the Lüneburg Heath in the “Dat Ole Hus” museum. There are several inns where you can eat and drink.

Wilsede Village

Highlight • Settlement

Only come with wide tires - racing bikes will sink in the sand here. The cobblestone tracks in the few places on the edge where cars are allowed are also not for untrained bottoms. The views over the heathland and the scent of heather and heather sheep are unique.

View of Totengrund

Highlight • Viewpoint

A stunning view of the valley basin is a highlight in every season. The valley basin was probably formed during the Ice Age and was placed under nature protection as early as 1921.

View of the Totengrund from the Holzberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Totengrund is not only a dream when the heather is in bloom. Even in spring, when nature awakens, the Totengrund is a worthwhile destination. Lovers particularly appreciate it in winter or when it is foggy, as this is when the mystical image appears. Just a landscape like a watercolor painting, almost unrealistic. That's why the Totengrund is one of the most photographed areas of the Lüneburg Heath.
Impressively striking juniper bushes and heather grow in the basin, which was probably created during the Ice Age and is located one kilometer south of Wilsede. The name “Totengrund” probably comes from the barren soil.
To protect the valuable heath landscape, the Totengrund itself is not allowed to be entered. You have a wonderful view from the lookout point. Several hiking trails lead around the Totengrund: for example to Wilsede, Oberhaverbeck, Niederhaverbeck or Behringen.
