Juniper forest

Highlight • Forest

At the Faßberg we go through a fantastic heath landscape again. Countless juniper bushes also grow here, which is why the area is also known as the juniper forest.

September 17, 2025,17.9.2025🥾🦮 Heidschnuckenweg, von Faßberg zur Oberhoher Heide mit Simba
The bus ride from Oberhohe to Faßberg went well today, and then we went from one beautiful heathland to the next 😊
Each one was beautiful and all special.
We even saw a herd of Heidschnucke sheep from afar.
The weather cooperated, too, and it was a wonderful day 😊

I expressly recommend the #heidehexe, great overnight stay, delicious home cooking. But the breakfast tops everything: so rich, so delicious, so many and different rolls, bread, types of cheese (for me as a vegetarian), so delicious scrambled eggs with something sweet, so much to rave about! Well, it had to be written!

Very nice stage in the best weather in autumn. However, I had to go back to Faßberg because the heather witch has apparently closed for a long time. The track was great. Heath again at last.

Stayed again in the Schlichternheide oasis.

Yesterday, Stage 10 continued from Faßberg to Oberohe. In the morning, I first organized the bus connection so I could leave Oberohe in the evening. On Sundays, you have to call in advance if you need the bus.
There were some long straight stretches along the entire route, which weren't all that much fun, but there were also a few …

In beautiful weather through the Lüneburg Heath, through a juniper forest, past large heath areas, unfortunately only a few blooming, but even now a beautiful landscape 😊😊😊

I'll keep it short today and let the pictures speak for themselves: The 10th stage of the Heidschnuckenweg is a purple dream (when the heather is in bloom). From the juniper heath to Schmarbeck, the heather accompanies me at every step. Even in the woods there was always a purple veil. And then there were the great junipers 🥰🥰....

Hail, rain, wind and sun! Today there was a bit of everything! After the first 6 km, we head off into the juniper heath! After that, forests, fields and heathland alternate! There were hardly any hikers on the trail! A beautiful, lonely but actually difficult route😊
