Tips

☠ R✪BIN 🥾

April 4, 2020

“The source of the Wümme lies in the highest part of the Lüneburger Heide in the nature reserve Lüneburger Heide [9] south of Niederhaverbeck. The Este rises only a few kilometers from the source, but flows into the Elbe. From Wilseder Berg comes the Haverbeeke, the largest source stream, which merges with the Wümme 1.5 km west of Niederhaverbeck. Since the Haverbeeke at the confluence is both longer and more water-rich than the Wümme, it is not actually the Haverbeeke that flows into the Wümme, but conversely the Wümme into the Haverbeeke or the Haverbeeke is the actual source stream of the Wümme. From there, the Wümme initially flows through near-natural lowlands. It then flows through Scheeßel and Rotenburg, to which the mills on the Wümme once contributed.

Currently (April 2020) the Wümme has fallen dry in the upper reaches.

Here you can see the dry course of the Wümme very well and you can guess how much water must have flowed through here.
