The extensive heathland with its numerous, gnarled junipers is considered the largest and most beautiful juniper forest in northern Germany.
This area is also called "Teufelsheide" because of the mist that often sweeps across the country and leaves behind mystical images.

The heath is always worth a visit – not just during the heather bloom in August, when the landscape transforms into a glorious purple. The nature park stretches over 480 square kilometers between the heathland villages of Eschede, Hermannsburg, Müden, Unterlüß, and Winsen (Aller). The Southern Heath Nature Park offers protection to animals sensitive to disturbance, such as the crane and the black stork. Herds of Heidschnucke sheep (Heidschnucke sheep) take care of the landscape – they regularly nibble on the heather. Numerous hiking and cycling trails lead through the hilly heathland, which dates back to the Ice Age.

Detailed information about the nature park can be found here: nationale-naturlandschaften.de/gebiete/naturpark-suedheide

Heidesee Inn

Highlight • Restaurant

This restaurant in the immediate vicinity of the eponymous lake is ideal for a longer rest, whether during or after a hike. We experienced a very friendly service and can only praise the food.

Heidesee, Müden (Örtze)

Highlight • Lake

The Heidesee was created in 1974 and is originally actually a pond. To date, the lake has developed into an important habitat for many plants and animals, such as dragonflies.
Wooden benches and tables around the lake invite you to have a picnic or simply relax. In the summer months you can dangle your feet in the cool water on one of the small jetties, watch the sailing boats and enjoy the sunset. No matter what time of day or year - the Heidesee always has its charm, not least because of its fantastically beautiful reflections.
On a short walk (approx. 2.5 km) around the Heidesee you can discover a lot of interesting flora and fauna.
On the four information boards, signposts for the large river path that leads along the lake, you can find out a lot of interesting information about:
• Plant
• Animals
• Forest
• Water
The river-forest adventure trail extends along picturesque forest paths and paths along the Örtze. The total 20 km of the path is divided into several sections that are easy to hike and invite you to explore tours of between 3 and 6.5 km.
