Lake Hardau is idyllically situated in the Lüneburg Heath, not far from the town of Uelzen. The surrounding area is characterized by pine and birch forests, as well as open water, creating a tranquil and natural atmosphere. The waters invite you to relax on the shore, swim in the summer, and enjoy water sports such as boating, where appropriate facilities are available. The surrounding area offers well-signposted cycling and hiking trails leading through forest and riverside landscapes. This makes Lake Hardau ideal for leisurely family outings as well as for sporty visitors who regularly seek exercise in nature. There are occasional small shops and restaurants nearby, making a visit to the lake a pleasant experience. Particularly noteworthy is the tranquility of the lakeshore, far from the hustle and bustle of the city, combined with its central location between nature and the historic town of Uelzen. This makes it an attractive destination for those seeking relaxation, nature lovers, and day trippers seeking a compact, easily accessible local recreation destination.

It's a beautiful park with lots of information for all ages. To see the animals, you should attend feedings, as these shy creatures are otherwise in hiding.
