Very nice treetop path. There are knowledge stations along the path that provide information about a wide variety of natural topics. The view from the tower is great. Of course, you also have the option of transferring to the wildlife park with a combination ticket or an upgrade.

On Sunday I thought, now we already know the Wolf Center and it would be too boring to visit it again, so we drove 90 km further to the Lüneburg Heath to the wildlife park there. Since I googled before, I knew that this park also had wolves. When we were in this park, I was very surprised, a …

A very nice animal park that focuses primarily on the northern hemisphere, with plenty of woodland, seating areas, and playgrounds for children.
Dogs are allowed.

The fallow deer will also eat food from your pocket, but they won't jump on you like goats 😉

After a long plan, it finally worked out to spend a few days in the Lüneburg Heath 😀
Before that we made a dangling, as a prelude, and visited the wildlife park Lüneburger Heide🌞

Here, too, something is always changing. Despite or especially with a dog, a visit to this wildlife park is a must! So beautifully embedded in the hilly landscape, so much interesting information about wild animals and the threats to them. If they are gone, we humans will soon be gone too! So be careful!

Unfortunately, there was another accident with a fallow deer that ran into me. Serious injury 😫 to the human being.

Today I swapped my hiking boots for sneakers and spent a truly wonderful day at the wildlife park. First, I climbed the treetop walk (not tracked by Komoot) and then, of course, walked right through the wildlife park. To see the birds of prey show, I skipped the bus for a relaxing connection to the apartment and don't regret it …

A Sunday with bright sunshine. At breakfast we thought about what we could do and spontaneously went to the Lüneburger Heide wildlife park.

We used to go there quite often when the children were small and had annual passes. We hadn't been there for a long time, but it's always nice for adults too. A wonderfully landscaped area. And despite …
