    Only come with wide tires - racing bikes will sink in the sand here. The cobblestone tracks in the few places on the edge where cars are allowed are also not for untrained bottoms. The views over the heathland and the scent of heather and heather sheep are unique.

      With the mountain bike you do a lot easier here. So you can master the sandy paths well.

        The area includes large areas of the Lower Saxony Geest between Buchholz and Soltau with a landscape of unique character, characterized by extensive heathland, moors, clear heather streams and near-natural deciduous forests as well as coniferous forests.

        Particularly in the area of a terminal moraine, the most famous elevation of which is the Wilseder Berg, extensive dwarf shrub and juniper heaths, and also scattered species-rich bristle grass meadows, have developed through traditional heathland management and have been preserved through maintenance measures that today bear witness to the image of the heath landscape that used to occupy the majority of the Geest.

        The appearance of this landscape, which is not only culturally significant but also important for a large number of species, is characterized by the areas of heather divided into large areas of juniper stands, which have a small-scale and dynamic site mosaic. On inland dunes there are transitions to dry grassland with bent and silver grass. In groundwater-influenced, partly boggy depressions, moist heaths with bell heather can be found, in which the inflorescences of the endangered bog lily add yellow color accents. In some places there are transitions to the typical raised moor vegetation, which also occurs on a larger scale in the Pietzmoor southeast of Schneverdingen.

        Numerous heath streams and rivers such as the Wümme, Böhme and Seeve originate in the area, some of which are accompanied by marsh and spring forests with alders and ash trees.

        The Lüneburg Heath is the habitat of many endangered species such as the sand lizard and smooth snake, various amphibian species, the brook lamprey and bullhead, as well as dragonflies such as the green damselfly. Other species include the woodlark, black grouse, great grey shrike and otter.
