Raakmoorgraben

Highlight • Forest

Great hiking trail to share with cyclists. Usually, however, you can coordinate well and the encounters are friendly.

Boardwalk through Raakmoor

Highlight • Trail

The boardwalk is very beautiful, the moor is so close to the right and left that you can see inside.
Be careful when it's wet: very slippery!

Viewing Platform at Raakmoor Wetlands

Highlight • Viewpoint

Slightly elevated view of the moor. There are several viewing platforms in the Raakmoor - this is the southern one - near the wooden footbridge.

In the north-west of Hamburg - in the Hummelsbüttler Feldmark - is the Raakmoor nature reserve, which with its 18 hectares is one of the smallest nature reserves in the Hanseatic city. The current transitional moor was originally a raised moor that was destroyed by peat removal and drainage so that the area could be used for agricultural purposes. Remains of bends and buried trenches still bear witness to this today. The monotypic flora disappeared except for a few remnants.
The Raakmoor is now going through the first phase of renaturation after being rewetted.

Sometimes it doesn't take much to provide some balance and distance after a few strenuous days. In the formerly peated high moor you can experience a vegetation mix that is unique in Hamburg. The paths in the nature reserve are well developed for hiking. There are romantic hiking trails along the watercourses, and there are also footbridges for crossing the …

On a very hot day we took refuge in the much cooler Raakmoor, where it was pleasant to hike. There were surprisingly few mosquitoes, but the paths were in a bad condition, either because of horse riders or cyclists. Nice tour. The journey there by subway was one of the warmest parts of this tour.

In T-shirt weather, we set off for our first walk through the Raakmoor, which is easily accessible from the Langenhorn Nord subway station. Plenty of greenery in the beautiful forest, along ponds, ditches, and meadows, plenty of birdsong, including woodpeckers and cuckoos, and very few people about.
The southeastern section with its horse paddocks, private areas, and more buildings can …

Nice walk through "wild" terrain. Unfortunately, the aircraft noise is very present!
