Beautiful trail with an iconic name. Possible with a road bike, but better with a gravel bike or mountain bike.

From the "Wildes Moor" viewing hill, a sweeping view opens up over the almost treeless raised moor and green landscape, interspersed with renaturalized bodies of water. The atmosphere is particularly mystical in the morning with ground mist and the rising sun. A circular trail allows you to experience the unique flora and fauna: patches of cotton grass and sphagnum moss, bracken, and moor grass alternate, providing habitat for approximately 50 breeding bird species and various dragonflies and grasshoppers.

Particularly charming is the Servant Gallery, with its depictions of the apostles. These paintings were discovered by chance during renovations in the 1960s. A treasure.

The parish church in Jevenstedt was first documented in 1164. The interior of St. George's Church in Jevenstedt features a Baroque pulpit altar from the 18th century and a Romanesque baptismal font. The simple furnishings are complemented by a few sacred works of art, including statues of saints and simple stained glass windows. It currently hosts a "Tritt-ein!" (Come in!) event every Saturday.
