Unfortunately, you are not allowed to go up there. I believe the entire lake is private property.

It's a shame that the pavilion is fenced off. I remember very well the first time I passed by here and was very impressed to find this idyllic body of water.

The Nienwohlder Moor is a lesser-known moor in the north of Hamburg. The Bahnradweg (railway cycle path) passes by it, as well as some great gravel and single trails. I like to ride here because there is not much going on and the landscape is great. If it's a windy day, you'll get the full force of the wind due to the flat surface.
