One of a kind: The Lüneburger Heide nature reserve
Surrounding north Germany’s highest point lies the largest conserved moor landscape.
At 169 meters, the Wilseder Mountain is the highest point of the North German lowlands and a popular destination for carriage trips, walkers and cyclists. The nature reserve is car-free, and only around 60 people live in the village of Wilsede itself. Even so, when the heather blossoms in August/September, hundreds of thousands of visitors make their way to the Wilseder Mountain and the “Totengrund” nearby with its typical romantic moor atmosphere. The local museum, “Dat ole Huus” founded in 1907 in Wilsede, displays authentic furnishings in an old Heide farmhouse.
