The Wohldorfer Wald nature reserve is one of the oldest forest areas in Hamburg. There are many beautiful hiking trails in it. You can also visit the Soil Educational Path and the Historical Ecological Path.

The Wohldorfer Wald impresses with its deciduous trees and is the largest contiguous deciduous forest in Hamburg. The nature reserve has a total size of 278 hectares and forms a 1,800 hectare biotope network in northeast Hamburg with the nature reserves Duvenstedter Brook, Hansdorfer Brook and Ammersbek-Niederung.
The Wohldorfer Wald is the oldest forest district in Hamburg and has been designated as a recreation area since 1770. The city acquired the area as early as the 13th century. Due to the proud age of the forest, a special flora and fauna has developed there.

The varied tree population is reflected in different forest images. There are alluvial forests, in the depressions and hollows alder and beech forests and also areas with oaks, ash trees and maples. The landscape is shaped by the Ice Age terminal moraines and is accordingly hilly.
The animal world of the Wohldorfer Forest includes 14 different bat species and four beetle species from the "jungle relict" category, which only occur in particularly old forests. With a little luck, otters, kingfishers, woodcock or black woodpeckers can also be observed there.
