Very nice location, but beware !!! "Silly boyish prank" led to my broken collarbone. A 80cm long, 50cm wide and 40cm deep hole in the middle of the trail, which was carefully covered with foliage again brought me a forced break of 8 weeks.

UPDATE: The bomb crater has been official since 2021: I don't live in Lüneburg anymore, but it's worth stopping by here as a mountain biker or similar. There are nice pump waves and jumps that look a lot safer than they did a few years ago. Thank you that something like this is possible in Lüneburg! Thanks to the committed people and foresters!
