Pond in the Hahnheide Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural

This pond in the nature reserve Hahnheide does not exactly invite you as a seaside resort. Rather, it shows itself from its most beautiful side in late summer and autumn when it shimmers in rich shades of red and brown.

Waldeslust Inn

Highlight • Restaurant

With the Gasthof Waldeslust you can always lure me to climb the nearby Hanhneider Berg. After a hiking day, the innkeepers mainly offer venison with venison, wild boar and even wild duck. Highly Recommended!

Langer Otto Observation Tower (Hahnheide Conservation Area)

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Hahnheider tower is also lovingly called "Langer Otto" by many. Since 2001, this 27m high tower towers from the Großer Hahnheider mountain, and allows a panoramic view to the port of Hamburg.

May 26, 2025,Eine Runde im Naturschutzgebiet Hahnheide

Parked at the Schützenplatz, we headed straight into the Hahnheider Forest to the Hahnheider Tower. A refreshing breeze blew up there. The school class began the return journey. Not only above, but also below, one could hear the rustling of the forest, the occasional cuckoo, and the bright green still contrasts with the leaves. The hiking trail truly leads through …

April 18, 2022,Bachlauf – Kleines Tal Runde von Trittau

The Hahnheide nature reserve is beautiful 😊👍, but unfortunately the forester is still in hibernation 🛌 . The trees 🌳🌲 are still often on the paths, not bad, but we always had to climb around or over them 😅.

We actually had a different destination, but every resident of Germany had planned to drive today. 😉.
So we left very early at short notice and ended up here. The tour was beautiful. 🥰
