The centre of the Lüneburg Heath Nature Park is the 169m high mountain Wilseder Berg. It is thereby, also the highest elevation of the northwest German lowlands. From the summit with its landmark you can see a wide forest and heather landscape. On a clear day you can also see the tops of the Hamburg and Lüneburg church towers.
In the centre of the nature reserve Lüneburger Heide
The Wilseder Berg is the centre of the largest heath areas in Europe, from here you have a fantastic view of the wide, blooming landscape. 230 square kilometres of heath are covered. It has been under protection since 1921 because it had also become a hunting ground for rare animals and plants.
The area around the Wilseder Berg is almost car-free, only access roads to the parking lots around the nature reserve allow car traffic. Otherwise you can hike or cycle along the Wilseder Berg undisturbed and only with the sounds of nature. A great experience.
The Wilseder Berg is one of the first plots of land in today's nature reserve, which the famous heath pastor Wilhelm Bode from Egestorf has built for the association "Naturschutzpark e.V.". (VNP) in 1910.
